Costa Rica🇨🇷 called for urgent measures to protect marine environment,including a Precautionary Pause to Seabed Mining.Also transparency in organs of Seabed Authority, neutrality & accountability. Common Heritage of Humankind can't depend on the commercial interests of a few.

Aprobar un presupuesto que deja tantas dudas no solo no es responsable, sino que valida estas prácticas que son, cuando menos, poco apropiadas para una organización que está a cargo de la administración del patrimonio común de la humanidad Cancillería Costa Rica 🇨🇷

2 years ago at the Seabed Authority Costa Rica called for a "Precautionary Pause": no Seabed mining until & unless we can ensure effective protection of the environment. It started as a small club. Now we are 31!This wk we welcomed Malta, Honduras, Guatemala, Austria & Tuvalu!!

Why must we protect the Deep Sea? Bcause it is common heritage of humankind & only a healthy ocean can support a healthy planet. Let's not allow the commercial interest of a few prevail over science & over the rights of future generations!

Costa Rica deposited its instrument of acceptance of the Agreement on Fisheries Subsidies, bringing to 87 the number of WTO members that have formally accepted it. 24 more formal acceptances are needed for the Agreement to come into effect. Let's get this done!@canci
