Deep-sea Mining: Marine Ecosystems, Climate Change Mitigation & SIDS

  • サマリー

  • "On this episode of Diving Deep, we spoke with EcoVybz Podcast creator and the Caribbean representative for the Sustainable Ocean Alliance, Khadija Stewart about the risks we face as small island developing states supporting big global north corporations to undertake deep-sea mining. In addition to the potential widespread environmental impacts including, biodiversity loss, carbon-sink disruption, and loss of fisheries, Khadija shared a report from The Metals Company which suggests that the economic benefits may not be that great. Many sources agree, saying that these contracts, like many before, are predatory on small and volatile economies like ours in the Caribbean. So the question is, should we be cautious? What does a precautionary approach look like for us? Is deep-sea mining really worth it?"
