Last week, BCI, @NoDeepSeaMining, and @oceanfdn submitted a joint complaint to the @SECGov over @themetalsco 's material misrepresentations & omissions in its eagerness to convince investors that mining the deep sea is a viable endeavor.

This is game changing. And one more BIG heavy brick on top of the huge pile of reasons for why our civilization should in no way seriously consider going to the bottom of the deep sea to mine for minerals.

Great op-ed on #deepseamining by Dr. Michael Norton in @TheEconomist coming out of our impactful side event at the March meeting of the @isba_hq in Kingston.

Headed to the @UNOceanDecade conference next week? Please join us and @SOAlliance for a panel featuring Indigenous and youth speakers from across the globe on integrating their views with ocean science.
Tuesday, April 9 3:00 - 4:30 pm at @arxiummb
Last week at our event at the @isba_hq @ejfoundation's @martin_webeler got right to the point about a circular economy (as opposed to #deepseamining) to meet our mineral needs for the green energy transition.

🐠For a quick overview of the elements that make #deepseamining a risky investment, look no further than @BobbiJo_Dobush's comments at our side event at the @isba_hq last week in Kingston.

Last week at a side event at the @isba_hq meeting we heard from @dan_kammen on alternate scenarios that show the overall insignificance of #deepseamining materials and the need for directed research to achieve a just, viable energy transtion.

Held on the sidelines of the @isba_hq meeting in Kingston, Jamaica, the event brought together a cross-section of tech and finance luminaries to debunk the mining industry narrative of the need for #deepseamining.
🐳Expertise and common sense were on full display Monday night at our panel discussion, "An Update on EV Battery Trends, Recycling, and the Economics of DSM - and Their Implications for DSM Policy."
On hand for AN UPDATE ON EV BATTERY TRENDS, RECYCLING, AND THE ECONOMICS OF DSM—AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS FOR DSM POLICY were an incredible lineup from academia, tech and finance.
As the @isba_hq meets in Kingston, we were thrilled to host distinguished panelists for a side event
this evening debunking the #deepseamining narrative.

Northvolt says new lithium-free sodium-ion battery is cheaper, more sustainable and doesn’t rely on scarce raw materials. Great read in @guardian by @MrAlexLawson.
