Obviously the greener thing is for most people to give up vehicles and walk or bike, but that ain’t happening.

I wish the conservationists would provide an alternative to deep-sea mining. We need these minerals for the green transition. We don't have enough of it. New terrestrial mines are opposed. Deep-sea mines are opposed. Where are the minerals going to come from? If you can't provide an alternative, and you just say "no" to everything, you're going to be left out of the solution.
The solution is eliminating the car dependency forced on us by the automakers through investment in electric rail and bus service plus accessible walking and cycling infrastructure. Also regulating vehicle size banning resource and energy wasteful large pickups and SUVs.

If we're going to electrify the grid (by making more public transport, for example), we're going to need more of these materials.
Years ago I was involved in some of exploratory work for the now defunct Nautilus Minerals Solwara-1 project in Papua New Guinea. What I saw there gave a lot cause for concern and I don't think you can regulate this industry enough to make it safe. My biggest concern is that there are reckless players ( and nations ) in this field and they will do irreparable harm. Unfortunately a oil & gas services company I work with now wants to get into seafloor mining and they are very safety conscious. I'm not sure I even trust them to do it .
To give some context to your comment: the Solwara-1 project was for a different and more destructive type of mining of Seafloor Massive Sulphides (SMS) at 1,600 meters waterdepth than the harvesting of Polymetallic Nodules (PMN) in the Clarion Clipperton Zone at 4,000+ meters waterdepth that this documentary focuses on. The SMS zones are much richer in fauna than the PMN zones, where due to its depths no flora exists either. TMC and their sponsors take the research into environmental consequences very seriously (as they are obliged to by the ISA) and incorporate measures into their designs to reduce the impacts as much as possible (for instance by the hopper and membranes design on the collector vehicle to direct flow back to seafloor, keeping 98% of sediment plumes below 2 meter height in order to settle back to the seabed). I I know I will drive environmentalists up a wall by saying this, but there really is very, very little life down there. And for all the conjecture and doomsday speak that make the shiny headlines, when you look at actual scientific studies and tests on nodule harvesting the impact is little compared to land-based alternatives. So until the world has enough critical minerals to recycle, one should really be daring enough to acknowledge the relativity of these bads.
@@markboon, even if that were all true, the nodules take millions of years to form, so it's a one and done type of thing, and while there is "little" life down there we just really don't know the complete picture of our oceans ecosystem. We know more about the moon and stars than we know about our oceans, and we're not doing a great job of taking care of the problems we KNOW we're already causing, I hate the hippie dippy people more than most so, if the entire company puts their, and their family's lives on the line I'd be ok with seabed mining. But if any damage is done we toss the whole lot, investors and their families included into the worlds largest woodchipper, feet first.
Do you use telephone? A computer? A TV? RTV AGD, electric scooter, bicycle, watch, ipods? Then stop, act now, as the society. Don't be surprised they are trying to get minerals from the seabed, while in exclusive economic zone there is none now. And these minerals that can't be found in these zones anymore are in deep seabed.
That's a horrible idea. Why purposefully cause harm? The area of interest for deep sea mining,the CCZ, is so deep that there is little to no life because it is so dark down there.
We should look into it in the future but it should be done in an extremely regulated way with an extra focus with regards to impact on ecosystem but it shouldn't be an excuse to reduce recycling of the available metals.

Well, we can allow "The Metals Company" to try to do this somewhat sustainably or wait until the Chinese start deep sea mining in the cheapest manner possible with no regard for ocean life. Yet, at the same token land mining won't be reduced or stopped. Indonesia needs to profit from industry just like any other country, so the rainforest there will continue to disappear until the mines are petered out.
Incidentally, there's also an ongoing race to ban deep-sea mining in sensitive regions. Mining is still mining and exploitation of the Earth - in my opinion anyway.

Exactly! But The Metals Company & Gerard Barron have capture the International Seabed Authority & taken advantage of small island nations to lead us to this position. You can learn more about this here: th-cam.com/video/x_NhLJPLGkY/w-d-xo.html
Deep sea mining may be controversial, but your point regarding "the lesser of two evils" is very valid I think. Land mining in tropical biodiversity hotspots can be really damaging as you well point out.
8:55 - They are literally ignoring the importance of creatures at the bottom of the ocean, but removing them can seriously hurt our planet. These little-known creatures actually do a lot to keep the ocean healthy. They help with recycling nutrients, support the food chain in the ocean, and even influence the Earth's climate. When we lose these creatures, it messes up the whole ocean ecosystem. It can also mess with the way carbon is handled in the ocean, which could make climate change worse. So, taking care of the diversity in the deep ocean isn't just about saving sea life; it's about looking out for our whole planet. Not just the “Indonesian rainforests” These companies are spending a lot of money to create reports that say it's not a big deal to harm these creatures. It's a bit like how oil and gas companies used to downplay their impact on the environment, and we've seen the problems that caused. These companies are trying to convince us that the harm isn't that bad, but any harm to our environment matters. And they’re paying off small island countries to allow them to start the mining, when these small islands will be the same ones facing the worst possible outcomes of climate change. I’m tired of 60 year old white men who will die soon keep making decisions like this to fill their pockets before being 6ft underground, to where the next generations will have to suffer.
The more i hear about resources needed for batteries, the more i feel there should be research to reduce cost of of green hydrogen and fuel cells. Destroying ecosystems on land and at the sea is nor right to reduce carbon emissions.
An important question is what battery types are going to be used in the future. There are many different battery chemistry choices being researched, many of which have been shown to work, and a number of which may not use these minerals as much or at all.
Yes! So many technologies are being developed that are moving away from conventional nickel and cobalt with great success. We don't NEED to exploit yet another precarious habitat. They just want to line their pockets while the rest of us burn
How do you easily restore a strip mine that's over eight hundred feet down and covers about 30 acres of land has a big pit house that fix anything the guy how much older to have to put back in there is totally economically unfeasible to refill in a strip mine
This guys has has done some shady things in the past. He lost 500$ million dollars of investor money at a previous company along with destroying sensitive seadbed habitat. That company ended up going broke....
Most of the battery manufacturers have moved away from those minerals. I have my doubts they'll go back to them unless there's significant cost savings.
Wrong!!!!!! Most of the battery is still using those minerals and it's only going to increase! From higher performance to longer range batteries.... we are still yet to make any bigger EV like semi trucks and much more.
No. What can fix it is eliminating the car dependency forced on us by the automakers through investment in electric rail and bus service plus accessible walking and cycling infrastructure. Also regulating vehicle size banning resource and energy wasteful large pickups and SUVs.
this was shown in Black Panther Wakanda forever. So the next big industry is deep sea mining. Interesting. Apart from ecological concerns the question is also of mining rights. Who owns the rights to the ocean bed.
Re: It's easier to restore a land mine than an ocean mine. I completely disagree. Land mining often produces toxic spoil piles or toxic liquid leachate that can never be reduced to safe levels. The Roman hydraulic gold mines in Spain have not been restored after two thousand years.
The nodules are right on the surface of the bottom of the ocean. You're just engaging in the physical act of picking something up from the ocean floor. How is there going to be a toxic spill? @@jordane7249
The seabed robot scraping along the bottom of the seafloor like a vacuum cleaner seems... not great to me. It would be better if the robot "walked" along the floor the way the robot spot from boston dynamics works, and used robotic arms to grab the nodules instead. Even better would be if it left every other nodule on the floor, so that there are at least some nodules in a harvested location just in case they serve some environmental function. A robotic arm can grab some and leave some undisturbed in a way the vacuum cleaner method can't.
By buoyancy control the seabed robot (nodule collector vehicle) is hovering just above the seabed with just enough force (traction) on its tracks to manoeuvre. The nodules are lifted and sucked into the collector by a jetstream around a curved surface according to a principle called the coanda effect. No more than a layer of 4 inches deep is touched. Leaving every other nodule on the floor by collection of robotic arms would unfortunately not be economically viable or technically recommended as for the potential of breakdown of moving parts at 4,000 meter depth and the immense water pressure such instruments would endure. For your information; already 43% of the Clarion Clipperton Zone is prohibited from any mining activities by the ISA. My guess is that much of the remaining areas will never be mined due to excessive depths, sloping surfaces or uneven terrain, making nodule collection just not economically feasible there.
I heard that crumbs and chunks and scraps cannot become much in regards to ore or rocks which is needed to create metal. Yet synthetic forms of say marble or glass or liquid forms of mineral vitamins may. Yet as a space and defense companies creator and owner and engineering legend I'd say noone will benefit from activities like these but nation state's or terrorist in control of them.

These little-known creatures actually do a lot to keep the ocean healthy. They help with recycling nutrients, support the food chain in the ocean, and even influence the Earth's climate. When we lose these creatures, it messes up the whole ocean ecosystem. It can also mess with the way carbon is handled in the ocean, which could make climate change worse. So, taking care of the diversity in the deep ocean isn't just about saving sea life; it's about looking out for our whole planet. Not just the “Indonesian rainforests”
These companies are spending a lot of money to create reports that say it's not a big deal to harm these creatures. It's a bit like how oil and gas companies used to downplay their impact on the environment, and we've seen the problems that caused. These companies are trying to convince us that the harm isn't that bad, but any harm to our environment matters. And they’re paying off small island countries to allow them to start the mining, when these small islands will be the same ones facing the worst possible outcomes of climate change.
I’m tired of 60 year old white men who will die soon keep making decisions like this to fill their pockets before being 6ft underground, to where the next generations will have to suffer.
Mining the sea or ocean floor caused the war about the Mariana trench. Also caused nuclear war.
The more i hear about resources needed for batteries, the more i feel there should be research to reduce cost of of green hydrogen and fuel cells. Destroying ecosystems on land and at the sea is nor right to reduce carbon emissions.
Hydrogen is not a replacement for batteries.due to storage costs hydrogen is not suitable for e.g. cars. Maybe freight shipping or so...
An important question is what battery types are going to be used in the future. There are many different battery chemistry choices being researched, many of which have been shown to work, and a number of which may not use these minerals as much or at all.
Yes!
So many technologies are being developed that are moving away from conventional nickel and cobalt with great success.
We don't NEED to exploit yet another precarious habitat.
They just want to line their pockets while the rest of us burn
It'll be lithium batteries, idiot.
Exciting stuff.
How do you easily restore a strip mine that's over eight hundred feet down and covers about 30 acres of land has a big pit house that fix anything the guy how much older to have to put back in there is totally economically unfeasible to refill in a strip mine
Use hydrogen instead of batteries
why not mine junk yards and land fills ?
Because everything is mixed up. Very hard to recycle
Go for it. Better to dig up the bottom of the ocean vs blowing up a beautiful mountain in the Rockies or bulldozing a forest
Imagine what miners could find in the Famous M Trench, perhaps whole new types of new elements that rival the classic 4 elements.
This guys has has done some shady things in the past. He lost 500$ million dollars of investor money at a previous company along with destroying sensitive seadbed habitat. That company ended up going broke....
Most of the battery manufacturers have moved away from those minerals. I have my doubts they'll go back to them unless there's significant cost savings.
Wrong!!!!!! Most of the battery is still using those minerals and it's only going to increase! From higher performance to longer range batteries.... we are still yet to make any bigger EV like semi trucks and much more.
LFP is good but definitely not the best for all applications.
LMFAO you have absolutely no idea what you're babbling about.
Can we stop being the plague of the Earth. Why do we need more? How about less, simple times!❤❤❤
I don't know how the Metkayina clan will feel about this.
It would be nothing but a bandaid & likely cause more issues. The answer & greatest focus should be on asteroid mining.
свободная экономика всегда найдёт выход 💙
They can start deep mining for minerals after they clean all the trash out of the oceans!
Mined minerals to depleted deep seas to disrupted aquatic life to unknown consequences
No. What can fix it is eliminating the car dependency forced on us by the automakers through investment in electric rail and bus service plus accessible walking and cycling infrastructure. Also regulating vehicle size banning resource and energy wasteful large pickups and SUVs.
Instead of destroying the land, we want to destroy the oceans. Good idea
This is a big red flag. NO CHANCE this is a regulated, and eco friendly job. Leave the ocean alone.
this was shown in Black Panther Wakanda forever. So the next big industry is deep sea mining. Interesting. Apart from ecological concerns the question is also of mining rights. Who owns the rights to the ocean bed.
They want an energy transition but dont want to mine for it.
This could be a good alternative but I will requested a special taxes or a profit portion to be distributed only for environmental purposes...
GREED
Hmmm. Preparing for climate change seems to be a double edged sword...
This is very exciting technology!
Re: It's easier to restore a land mine than an ocean mine. I completely disagree. Land mining often produces toxic spoil piles or toxic liquid leachate that can never be reduced to safe levels.
The Roman hydraulic gold mines in Spain have not been restored after two thousand years.
What the hell do you know about the deep sea ecosystem that makes you so sure it's so easy to restore?
So we don’t know how to manage toxic spoil on land yet, how do they plan to manage it in an ocean?? Oh just let the ocean deal with right!
The nodules are right on the surface of the bottom of the ocean. You're just engaging in the physical act of picking something up from the ocean floor. How is there going to be a toxic spill? @@jordane7249
The seabed robot scraping along the bottom of the seafloor like a vacuum cleaner seems... not great to me. It would be better if the robot "walked" along the floor the way the robot spot from boston dynamics works, and used robotic arms to grab the nodules instead. Even better would be if it left every other nodule on the floor, so that there are at least some nodules in a harvested location just in case they serve some environmental function. A robotic arm can grab some and leave some undisturbed in a way the vacuum cleaner method can't.
By buoyancy control the seabed robot (nodule collector vehicle) is hovering just above the seabed with just enough force (traction) on its tracks to manoeuvre. The nodules are lifted and sucked into the collector by a jetstream around a curved surface according to a principle called the coanda effect. No more than a layer of 4 inches deep is touched. Leaving every other nodule on the floor by collection of robotic arms would unfortunately not be economically viable or technically recommended as for the potential of breakdown of moving parts at 4,000 meter depth and the immense water pressure such instruments would endure.
For your information; already 43% of the Clarion Clipperton Zone is prohibited from any mining activities by the ISA. My guess is that much of the remaining areas will never be mined due to excessive depths, sloping surfaces or uneven terrain, making nodule collection just not economically feasible there.
5000 species seems like an extremely lowball estimate for new species in the deep sea oceans
I heard that crumbs and chunks and scraps cannot become much in regards to ore or rocks which is needed to create metal. Yet synthetic forms of say marble or glass or liquid forms of mineral vitamins may. Yet as a space and defense companies creator and owner and engineering legend I'd say noone will benefit from activities like these but nation state's or terrorist in control of them.
That sounds like a recipe for disaster.
Google, Bmw, Volvo, Rivian, VW, Renault all gave the thumbs up to deep sea mining, oh and they make EVs as well, how convenient! They're gonna drive those mining vehicles all over the seabed but it'll be great for the environment on land so you don't have to worry! How much did CNBC get from those companies to do this report?
the metals company's plan is to stop mining in 30-40 years and fully support their closed loop program (reuse and recycle mined metals).
Mining the sea floor would lead to mass extinctions just like the gold rush and the revolutionary war of America and the world wars.
This comment section... "I just learned about this right now and suddenly I am very angry over this and will type furiously for a few minutes until I check out some other video!!!" 🤣
On my cellphone made of these metals.😅🤣
So how much material is being pulled out per year? What if that stops due to mining?
Wow let’s disrupt ocean ecosystem to get precious metals for new electronics, sounds smart
You can't see it because of the scale, but there was a smaller bump in the share price earlier in the year. In late January I saw I tiktok about TMC, then later the same day, a youtube videos about them. I looked on my investment app, and bought 50 shares at $1 each. The price increased by 80% over the weekend and I sold on the Monday. I didn't think any more about it until I saw this video and the much bigger spike over the summer lol. It seems every time they get some publicity it's cash out time. I've bought 50 shares off the back of this video and I'll sell them on Monday.
All you people that think you are controlling what people do worldwide is an amazingly self-righteous position to take. This is fascism in motion.
And there is always a massive C block to every great idea.. Recycling used battery it's the best choice for the future.
We shouldn’t disturbed the ocean like this.
We can’t handle the impact i bet.
Asteroids asteroids asteroids
#defendthedeep
NO MINING!!!
Recycling used battery it's the best choice for the future
Isn’t this literally the plot of Wakanda Forever? Do you want Atlantians? Because this is how you get Atlantians
6:18 except vehicles are switching to lithium iron phosphate.
If drilling deep sea for clean energy than I vote for gas powered vehicles.ev already destroy many sites for lithium battery
Whats it matter if some deep sea fish die? It wont affect anything
No use postponing more, adopt the rules and mine!
Let's wait for science first and not jeopardize the deep sea ecosystem. Also we cannot have both, land mining and deep sea mining. One has to go, and I don't believe we need Depp sea mining
No and will cause so much damage to the ocean just crazy
Could lower ocean levels
Probably not it will probably just f##k up the ocean even more
There's no such thing as "clean energy"
Because we need the minerals for ev car batteries is not a good enough reason.
derp.
One solution dont buy any of battery powered regular cars just make publick transportation as train and electric Buses as much as needed .
#6 🎉
Nothing is beyond greed of Elon musk. We’ll get there 😂
Who will benefit from extraction. Not me. I vote no!
But crude oil and natural gas rigs are fine for the ocean, what a bunch of codswallup
This is trying to destroy the earth😢
Please leave the ocean alone. We have done enough damage.
You don't have a submarine you can't deep sea mine.
Demise of human civilization
ask OceanGate, they have control everything with a Xbox controller
What about the sea life that lives on the ocean floor????
This is another case study on going back to a horse and buggy or coverd wagon these day's. That would be better for the earth can switch to solar power and wind power. Just the wind that is coming from the GOP could power a city or two. 😮
So how quickly humanity wants to die?
