EU Arctic Forum starting in #Brussels today. Let's see if the elephants in the room will be addressed properly: stopping #fossilfuel extraction and #deepseamining .

The government of #Palau calls on world leaders:
1. Ratify the High Seas Treaty
2. Establish a network of high seas sanctuaries
3. Ensure harmful activities like #deepseamining never destroy our Common Heritage
#OurOceanGreece #OurOcean2024
#ProtectTheOceans #StopDeepSeaMining

I'm mesmerized by the mysterious deep-sea, home to abundant, diverse and unique life in harsh conditions. Yet, threats like #DeepSeaMining endanger this unseen world. On #DeepDay , let's spotlight the need to safeguard our ocean's depths. 🌊🐙

On #DeepDay Seas At Risk published a 🆕 report showing the position of 22 European 🇪🇺 countries on #DeepSeaMining .

🔍 Just 3 years ago, not a single country in Europe defended a moratorium, precautionary pause, or ban.

🌊 Time for more to #DefendTheDeep .

Beijing Pioneer Hi-Tech Development Corporation Ltd. has launched of a public consultation on the environmental impact statement for the testing of its polymetallic nodule mining component: bit.ly/3Umf5x8

#ISA #ISBA29 #DeepSeaMining #EnvironmentalImpact

How will our fleet of AUVs:
1. Responsibly and selectively harvest #criticalmetals from the ocean floor
and
2. Unload payloads onto ships more economically and with lower environmental impact?

Watch this #video for the answers.

#deepseamining

The deep sea makes up 90% of the marine environment, but less than 5% has been explored.

If permitted, #DeepSeaMining would be devastating for our ocean, putting thousands of species at risk before we can begin to understand them. #DeepDay

Asking the panel how indigenous voices can be heard to #StopDeepSeaMining in the Arctic, Elle Merete Omma from the Saami Council turned the question to Norway: 'There's yes or no to certain questions - #DeepSeaMining is one of them.'

Today is Deep Day, a day to celebrate the ocean with our friends from the Deep Sea Conservation Coalition, and to raise awareness of the threats facing the ocean from deep sea mining. #DeepSeaMining #DeepDay2024

The deep-sea is a vibrant and extreme place, home to unique creatures and many discoveries to make.

However, some hope to turn this important ecosystem into the new mining frontier.

#DeepSeaMining will put the ocean and those who rely on it at great risk – it must not start.

#DYK that the #DeepSea plays an important role in mitigating #ClimateChange ?
Let’s preserve this unique and critical ecosystem from activities such as #DeepSea Mining and #BottomTrawling . Let’s #DefendtheDeep !

As world leaders gathered in Athens for Our Ocean Greece, the need and calls for a #DeepSeaMining moratorium were heard loud and clear!

Momentum is growing. Join the resistance and say no to deep-sea mining before it's too late. 🌊✊
