Whales use a deep-ocean β€œsound highway” to talk across entire ocean basins.
Deep-sea mining noise could block those calls.
The deep isn’t silent β€” it’s full of life worth protecting.

We’re all for renewable resources and polymetallic nodules aren’t one of them.
When the mining industry says β€œthey’ll grow back,” remember that means in tens of millions of years.
Deep-sea mining isn’t sustainable. It’s destructive and irreversible.

Ever thought about what it’s like 11km below the surface?
At the bottom of the Mariana Trench there's crushing pressure - yet life still thrives.
The deep ocean is special and irreplaceable - it must be protected.

How do you spot your next snack and avoid hungry whales in near total darkness? With eyes as big as soccer balls! πŸ‘€

The deep sea holds life stranger than science fiction - and it needs protection.

Environment America: We don’t need deep-sea mining - Deep Sea Mining Campaign Deep-sea mining risks damaging vibrant ecosystems that science is just beginning to understand. And we don’t need it to meet the critical minerals challenge.

We don’t need deep-sea mining.
We need to:
βœ” Reduce
βœ” Reuse
βœ” Repair
βœ” Recycle
βœ” Reimagine

Environment America shows that DSM is a reckless choice, not a necessity.

Cook Islands confronts critical questions on identity as debate on deep sea mining grows The question facing its people is no longer just about mining - but about identity, sovereignty, stewardship, and the ocean that binds them all.

Here's the ridiculous quote from Hans Smit:
Smit says it takes a million years for the nodules to grow back, and it is guaranteed that they would grow back, "because it's a natural process, it's just a very slow process."

Mining them obliterates ecosystems and wipes out biodiversity that won’t return on any human timescale.

Deep-sea mining trades irreplaceable life for short-term profit. We must say no to this reckless industry. 2/2

Become a deep sea defender today Join the Deep Sea Mining Campaign, calling for no deep sea mining anywhere, ever.

Act now: linktr.ee/nodeepseamin... #StopDSM

Taking tens of millions of years is not recovery... The disinformation spewing from deep sea miner Hans Smit is ridiculous.

Polymetallic nodules grow at an unimaginable pace: just 1–10 mm per million years. 1/2

The ocean doesn’t need deep sea mining and it looks like investors don’t need TMC.

Their latest quarterly results?
❌ $22M operating loss
❌ $74.3M net loss
❌ $0.20/share down the drain

TMC. Bad for the planet. Bad for business.

We have a rare opportunity before us:
- Exploit the ecosystems that sustain our planet
- Or preserve them for all future generations.

The deep sea isn’t the next frontier for mining. Technofixes aren't the solution. We should protect the deep sea at all costs.

The Economics of Deep-Sea Mining Don't Add Up If the U.S. wants to secure critical minerals it should invest in mining and processing facilities on home soil rather than the seafloor.
