Defending the ecosystems that keep us breathing. DEEP SEA MINING 🌊 REGENERATION 🌳 DEFORESTATION 🌎

[The Oxygen Project @TheOxygenProj]

For years, Indigenous knowledge has guided the rhythms of planting, harvesting, and renewal, shaping ecosystems that thrive through balance, not dominance. This wisdom reminds us that the environment is not a resource to be managed, but a relative to be cared for.

Long before the language of “sustainability” existed, Indigenous communities lived it; understanding that to take from the Earth is to enter into a relationship of reciprocity, not extraction.

Their goal? To secure minerals like neodymium and dysprosium for tech and EVs at the cost of ecosystems we barely understand.

Japan claims this is about "national security." But this isn’t security.

It’s ecocide, disguised as innovation.

National polls show that 75% of people oppose permanently selling public lands to pay for development.

We’ve stopped threats like this before, and we can do it again. But it requires action.

“The expansion of this conflict could ignite a fire that no one can control. We must not let that happen.”

A spectacle to behold, in the shallows, hugging this island, we see broad cowtail rays and mangrove whiprays - and looking with a close eye, a few juvenile blacktip reef sharks weave between the rays.

"It's wrong, it's been proven, and therefore we must abstain."

Hear French Ambassador @O_Poivre_dArvor and German Commissioner for the Ocean @OceanUnger explain why their nations oppose #DeepSeaMining, and call on others to stand up in opposition with them 📽️ #DefendTheDeep

#BreakingNews Michael Lodge is OUT! Lodge has been strongly overtaken by the alternative candidate 💪🏼👏🏼 she has publicly said no applications will be granted before regulations are agreed! A great move but we still need to see deep sea mining banned. For now, we celebrate!
