As discussions at the ISA this week touched upon #insurance and #risk, three more insurers exclude underwriting #deepseamining. Another strong signal about how risky investing in this destructive industry would be, the business case is not there. Aaron Vermeulen

Look how beautiful the deep-sea Casper octopus is while they swim and drift to the seabed. Watch to the end for a glimpse of the most gorgeous coiling arms!😍🐙

As discussions at the ISA this week touched upon insurance and risk, three more insurers exclude underwriting #deepseamining joining SwissRE. Another strong signal about how risky investing in this destructive industry would be. dsm-campaign.org/wp-content/upl… #ThinkDeeply #DefendTheDeep

"For Africa the implications of #deepseamining are profound. The price to our planet and its ecosystems may very well far outweigh the short-term economic benefits, compelling us to safeguard the delicate balance of our oceans and nature." Rashid Sumaila

One more scientific discovery that reinforces just how little we know of the deep sea floor. We need to study it more before we start strip-mining it for minerals that are used in yesterday's battery technologies. bbc.com/news/articles/…

Dark oxygen made by deep sea 'batteries' - could support life on the seafloor and on other planets #stopdeepseamining bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I think this is the biggest paradigm shift in deep-sea science I've ever seen. Kudos Andrew Sweetman and team for discovering that manganese nodule fields produce O2 in the deep ocean. BBC News (UK) report: bbc.com/news/articles/… Paper: Paper: nature.com/articles/s4156…

The world's scientists are working to raise the alarm on the destructive and irreversible effects #DeepSeaMining would have on ocean ecosystems. We must listen. Hear Professor Alex David Rogers explain how seabed mining would remove essential pillars of deep sea life 📽️

A very thoughtful comment from a top deep sea scientist - THREAD!

Another reason for a global Ban on #deepseamining #deepsea UN Environment Programme UN Ocean Decade

‘The seabed is the source of creation and we need to take care of everything that precedes us’: this is Uncle Sol, native Hawaiian Elder, talking at the ISA last year, way before this study about #darkoxygen goes off the charts in media greenpeace.org/international/… #StopDeepSeaMining

Another great explainer about science from the amazing Beth Orcutt . 🐙click trough the thread.... #ThinkDeeply

🌊🚨 Exciting news! American Samoa has adopted a #DeepSeaMining moratorium! This follows Hawaii's recent prohibition. Momentum for a moratorium continues to grow across the globe. Deep-sea mining is not wanted, needed or worth the risk. Read more: americansamoa.gov/_files/ugd/4bf…

👉SAP - another big corporate voice raised for a moratorium on #deepseamining 🐙 This comes as governments are facing a push by a few to open the deep sea to a new destructive industry for minerals the industry won't need. Investments must go to a #CircularEconomy WWF Marc Benioff

Wow! The movement to #DefendTheDeep is growing fast! Protecting our ocean from #DeepSeaMining is a win-win for people and nature. Jessica Battle 🌊🌍♻🦈 Kaja Lønne Fjærtoft Alfred Ralifo 🇫🇯

🐙A moratorium on #deepseamining is the only way forward as states grapple with many challenges incl lack of science, benefit sharing, governance of the ISBA-HQ the fact that minerals fr the deep sea are not required for the #greentransition to a low carbon world... #ThinkDeeply
