Charting the Depths: Legal, Scientific, and Environmental Perspectives on Deep-Sea MiningAs the demand for critical minerals grows, deep-sea mining has emerged as both a promising opportunity and a profound challenge. While the seabed holds vast untapped resources, its fragile ecosystems remain largely unexplored, raising ethical, legal, and environmental concerns.This session brings together experts in law, science, and environmental policy to examine the complexities of deep-sea mining. We will explore regulatory frameworks, ecological risks, technological advancements, and the global implications of resource extraction in the deep ocean. Join us for an insightful discussion on balancing innovation, sustainability, and ocean stewardship in the race for underwater resources.
