"We may ruin the ocean before we even understand it.We’re only just starting to understand the deep sea and, by extension, our planet. Moving forward with something as intrusive and invasive as deep-sea mining in a place about which we still have so much to learn simply makes no sense."

Watch the video of yesterday's trespass notice being served to wannabe seabed miners TTR, at their Sydney office, on behalf of Taranaki Iwi by Rukutai Watene from Ngāti Ruanui and Greenpeace activists. ✊ 🌊

Send a message to political leaders in New Zealand, demanding an outright ban to seabed mining, so we don't have to keep fighting off this ridiculous and destructive project for another decade.

The members of TTR/Manuka Resources locked themselves inside an office to avoid the activists serving them a trespass notice.

The TTR Taranaki seabed mining project may be on its way to the rubbish bin, but the next goal is an explicit, outright ban on seabed mining.
Let the whales, dolphins, penguins and multitude of creatures thrive in peace.
Let the iwi and hapū look after their rohe.
Let families catch fish to feed themselves.
Let responsible tourism enjoy the wonders of natural life there.
And if you absolutely have to have some kind of industry, make it an offshore wind farm, in a limited, clearly defined area of the region.
That is an important step in the energy transition to a carbon free economy, creating jobs that do not depend on exploitation of the environment and the inevitable boom and bust cycles of mining with the ensuing environmental devastation it leaves behind.

Feasting on the salty tears of my enemies (the mining lobby and their frustrated reckless extraction plans).
For over a decade the community, experts and iwi alike, have opposed this project in every court available, through every single stage of the process. It has been rejected over and over again. Every single time.
The fast track lowered the bar for it to go through and even then it could not clear it.
It sucks, plain and simple.Take a hint Alan Eggers, haere atu.

We now cross live to the office of the Minister for Ocean Destruction, after receiving news that his beloved seabed mining project application would be declined, despite changing the law so it would pass.
Bye bye would-be seabed miners! We won't miss you!

The Global Ocean Treaty and the High Seas Alliance in TIME Magazine! 🌊🐙
"It’s hard to overstate the significance of a new international treaty at this current political moment. There has never been a climate diplomacy effort like this for the ocean—it is obviously a big win for the ocean, but also for multilateralism."
"The effort to establish high seas protections will outlast any single administration, and global public support will be critical to these efforts."

Boom! 💥
With the remaining ratifications coming from St Vincent and the Grenadines 🇻🇨, Morocco 🇲🇦 and Sierra Leone 🇸🇱, the threshold of 60 has been reached and now a countdown of 120 days starts to bring the #GlobalOceanTreaty into force!
This is one of the most significant tools for ocean protection in history and will play a major role in creating ocean sanctuaries and ultimately reaching the goal of 30% of earth protected by 2030.
A huge win for the ocean, biodiversity and climate! 🌊🐙

A celebration is appropriate! 🎉

☎️️ Ring ring! The ocean called. It wants its biodiversity back
World leaders are having a nice time in Nice, where they’re supposed to be ratifying a treaty that would protect our oceans.
We’re asking them to answer the call, and meet the deadline they set themselves. We need at least 60 countries to make the treaty law to make it legally binding.
If you want to help, sign the petition to call on governments to seas the moment and create ocean sanctuaries.

We really don't need to ruin one of the last untouched environments to make the billionaires richer. Humankind is much better off with a healthy ocean than with a new destructive industry.
