@allatsea.bsky.socialThis research paper correctly (IMHO) argues that #Deepseamining🪸⛏️ would only ever likely be additive to terrestrial mining -and therefore not offset any of the woes of terrestrial mining -(a simplistic argument that proponents make).
@allatsea.bsky.socialWhat Makes Scientific Input Legitimate at the International Seabed Authority?
Excellent blog post argues for clarity over how science for #DeepSeaMining is managed, where it stops and where politics starts.
@news.zovintus.comEngineers prep massive deep-sea mining robots on Pacific research vessels to harvest cobalt and nickel nodules 4,000 meters below the abyssal plain.

@simongranberg.bsky.social🌊💰 #DeepSeaMining companies are scrambling to profit from a loophole that should never have existed.
The #seabed is the common heritage of humankind, not a corporate clearance sale.
Close the loophole. #DefendTheDeep 🐙
@realtuckfrumper.bsky.socialInterior Secretary Doug Burgum said the administration could begin issuing deep-sea mining permits within months. The plan targets mineral-rich seabed nodules while environmental groups warn of potentially irreversible ecosystem damage. #DeepSeaMining

@drtanjastratmann.bsky.socialThe benefit of traveling by train to the project meeting in Lodz 🇵🇱 is that I can prepare the presentation in the train. #MiningImpact3 #DeepSeaMining #JPI-Oceans
@shoulder2wheel.bsky.socialThe deep ocean in international waters is also a common heritage zone, but Trump and a #deepseamining outfit called The Metals Company, want to unilaterally lay claim to it.

@more-whit.bsky.socialVery happy to have contributed to this article that takes a 'deep dive' into investor concern around #DeepSeaMining, which "is not economically sustainable nor in line with the Global Biodiversity Framework's commitment to phase out harmful subsidies"
@eloralee.bsky.socialIndigenous Samoans are fighting as hard as we can to stop the destruction of our oceans, but the Marine Minerals Agency (formerly BOEM) intends to hold an auction for the first deep seabed mining lease in November. #datacenter #ai #deepseamining #savetheMoana www.facebook.com/share/v/14oJ...
