"May 2 2025
#Trump wants to accelerate the extraction of manganese nodules from the deep seabed. The American president has signed a decree to strengthen the American ambitions for #deep sea mining. #China reacts angrily and says that Trump is completely ignoring international rules. Environmental organizations are concerned because the possible impact could cause irreversible ecological damage to life in the deep sea.
Gerard Barron, CEO of The Metals Company, is a pioneer in the exploitation of the #deep sea in international waters and previously stated in the Tegenlicht documentary 'De strijd om de diepzee' that the UN organization International Seabed Authority (ISA) cannot influence the US because the country is not a UN member. 'You can imagine that my application goes to the US and not to the ISA."
