In this issue

Dr Rina Mukherji’s article explores the contentious issue of deep-sea mining, emphasizing the urgent need to resolve environmental, financial, regulatory, and governance concerns. Despite growing interest in extracting minerals from the seabed, many governments, institutions, and experts call for a moratorium, warning of irreversible harm to marine biodiversity and ecosystems that remain largely unexplored. The article outlines mining methods, the threat of sediment plumes, and evidence of long-lasting ecological damage. Highlighting the oceans’ critical role in climate regulation and sustaining life on Earth, the author argues for stronger oversight and a continued pause until risks are fully understood and addressed.
