The environmental risks posed by deep-sea mining extend far beyond destruction of seabed habitats. New research from the University of Hawaii at Manoa affirms that plumes of sediment from mining operations pose a real threat to life in the ocean water column. bit.ly/47ZsxOi #DSM #SeabedMining

Deep-sea mining risks: sediment plumes that smother coral, noise that harms whales, species loss before they’re even discovered, and threats to cultural practice that depend upon an intact, healthy ocean. These harms fall hardest on local communities. #SeabedMining #OceanJustice #PacificVoices
