Next week in Jamaica, @ISBAHQ will meet to discuss regulations that could open up our ocean to deep-sea mining. The deep sea is the 💙 of our planet & helps make life on Earth possible. We must #KeepItInTheDeep & say NO to #DeepSeaMining.

Follow @DeepSeaConserve for updates.

Celebrations in #Nairobi today as #UNEA5 agrees to negotiate a #PlasticsTreaty that:
☑️ is legally binding
☑️ covers the life cycle of #plastics

With this historic first step, the work can begin to forge an ambitious, effective instrument to #EndPlasticPollution.

#IUCNcongress has just passed Motion 069 calling for a moratorium on deep-sea mining. An overwhelming majority of 81 governments and government agencies voted in favour of the motion. This is a momentous outcome for ocean conservation. #defendthedeep #deepseamining 🌊

[Daniel Steadman @DanJSteadman]

Delighted to see this response to @CCI_Cambridge #DefiningDestructiveFishing project from @OneOceanHub. "It is essential to address destructive fishing in a rounded manner, emphasising interconnection between environmental, social and economic impacts" https://t.co/mUM5arwkkZ

[Fauna & Flora @FaunaFloraInt]

We need to shatter the myth that deep-sea mining is the solution to the climate crisis. The impacts will result in biodiversity loss, disruption to marine ecosystems and ultimately undermine the ocean’s ability to mitigate climate change.

@sharktopia @WHO Seriously.
Do WAY better.

My rep is already ruff sailing.

Give me a break, Humans

[Jess Walker @jessicammwalker]

@WHO @WHO this analogy is 1. Confusing 2. Not doing anything to help the case for threatened #shark species. #DoBetter
