🌊 Incredible! 57 new deep-sea species have been discovered around 2.5km underwater, including a sea cucumber dubbed "Loki"

It is unconscionable to allow destructive mining in these places before science has had a chance to understand them #DefendTheDeep

A moratorium is the economically responsible choice. #DefendTheDeep

Princess Esmeralda of Belgium just delivered a strong opening speech at #OceanWeek in front of the European Parliament. She called on us to choose protection before destruction when it comes to #DeepSeaMining

🌊💰 #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 🐙
