The False Promise of Deep-Sea Mining

[Justin Alger]

Hi everyone,

Given the Trump administration's recent encouragement of deep-sea mining, we feel our recent editorial in npj Ocean Sustainability, "The False Promise of Deep-Sea Mining", might be of interest to you.

The ecological case against deep-sea mining is clear, but here we make a different argument - that there just isn't much to gain from it. We hope it's useful!

Sincerely,

Justin Alger, Jessica Green, Kate Neville, Susan Park, Stacy VanDeveer, and DG Webster
