We don't want it or need it – and it's not worth the risk!
Say no to #DeepSeaMining and the inevitable & permanent destruction it would cause to the marine environment.
📣Call on your minister to #DefendTheDeep and hit the brakes on this reckless industry. https://t.co/FtfnhjIZMR

Hoy tuve el honor de conocer a Daniela Fernández y a su equipo en una audiencia ciudadana. Con 19 años, creó Sustainable Ocean Alliance (SOA) para invertir y apoyar iniciativas que conserven los océanos. Conversamos sobre la Reserva Hermandad en Galápagos y cómo podemos seguir respaldando la conservación de los océanos y el Ambiente desde el Gobierno Nacional. El ministro @ja_davalos será el encargado de dar cumplimiento a los temas.

Me alegró muchísimo recibirles en el despacho. Esta es la casa de todos los ecuatorianos. Ver a jóvenes como ellos tan comprometidos en sus causas, nos motiva a seguir trabajando.

Gracias querida Daniela por tu labor, y gracias por la tortuga que me trajeron, símbolo de mi compromiso y el de este gobierno, de una buena transición ecológica.

"One good exemple of ecocide is the effect of seabed mining. Ecocide should be an international crime "
Couldn't agree more. So
@MariaOhisalo @Haavisto
I don't get it: why didn't you join the moratorium on deep sea mining as France, Spain, Germany...and 10 others countries ??

🧵#Norway has called themselves an ocean leader for decades. However, they are now considering opening a huge area - the size of Germany - in the pristine Arctic waters for #DeepSeaMining. This is not ocean leadership, but ocean destruction.
This is what we found, worth a look:

Uncle Sol Kaho'ohalahala offered delegates an Oli, Hawaiian traditional chant. The Oli is about gathering people who have come from very far. "The ocean is our country and we come from the deepest depths of the seas." #StopDeepSeaMining #ISA28
