It's not enough that #Fukushima #RadioactiveWaterDumping will continue for years (centuries?), now #Japan wants to mine the #DeepSea and kill even more #OceanLife? WTF!

Japan hauls rare earth-rich mud from deep sea in bold test mission

Story by BeckhamLangford
Feburary 3, 2026

"Japan’s own planners acknowledge the uncertainties. Jan briefings on the test mining plan stressed that, However, key aspects remain unknown, including the quality of the minerals and the economics of lifting and processing such vast volumes of mud. Mining the mud had previously been seen as too expensive compared with land-based deposits, and even with new technology, the cost of pumping, dewatering and refining the material at scale is still an open question. Analysts also point out that any move toward commercial production will face intense scrutiny from environmental regulators and coastal communities, who want clearer evidence on how sediment plumes, noise and habitat disruption will affect #DeepOcean #ecosystems around the site."

Jelly. 26 July 2018. SeaWorld, Orlando.

The lighting choices in jelly tanks, highlighting the bioluminescent or fluorescent proteins, is so magical.

Several translucent jellyfish float against a deep blue background, with their tentacles and bell-shaped bodies clearly visible.

Skiffs and small boats. Random cameraman, probably taken from a sunset champagne cruise in Key West - if it was that evening, a lot of (cheap) champagne was consumed, and the bike ride to the hotel was an experience. 2013

“...it’s taken 100 years to get the oceans that warm at depth,” he says. “Even if we stopped using fossil fuels today, it’s going to take hundreds of years for that to circulate through the ocean...”
