???????? Protecting Our Oceans: Deep-Sea Mining and Its Impacts ????????
Join us for an eye-opening talk by marine scientist Neil Nathan, who will shed light on the emerging industry of deep-sea mining and its potential consequences for our precious ocean ecosystems. ????????????
Deep-sea mining is on the brink of exploiting one of the last remaining pristine environments on our planet. As companies search for critical minerals to support the green transition, the temptation to mine the seabed is growing. However, we must proceed with caution, as the costs of preemptively mining the deep sea could be devastating. ????⚠️
The potential impacts of deep-sea mining are wide-ranging and alarming. Biodiversity loss, threats to fisheries and seafood supply, and disruptions in long-term carbon cycles are just a few examples. Recent analyses have even suggested that deep-sea minerals might not be necessary to meet projected demand. ????????????
Fortunately, momentum is building in support of a moratorium on deep-sea mining until adequate regulations are in place. And that's where Neil Nathan comes in. As a marine scientist at the Benioff Ocean Science Laboratory at UC Santa Barbara, Neil leads efforts to protect deep-sea ecosystems by advancing scientific knowledge and making it accessible to international negotiators responsible for regulations. ????????
Neil's background in marine policy, climate change, and natural capital, with a B.S. & M.S. in Earth Systems from Stanford, gives him unique insights into the challenges we face. But it's not all work for Neil! In his free time, he enjoys skiing, surfing, hiking, and playing music with friends. ????????♂️
Learn from Neil about the potential risks of deep-sea mining and the importance of responsible stewardship of our ocean's resources. Together, we can make a difference for our planet's future. ????????
