Experts warn of environmental and cultural risks as BOEM considers seabed mineral areas off Alaska Ocean-policy experts and tribal representatives at a House Resources briefing said BOEM's request for information (RFI) on seabed minerals overlaps critical fish habitat and subsistence areas, urged a full environmental impact statement and government-to-government tribal consultation, and flagged uncertain economics and long-lasting ecological risks.

Experts raise alarm as BOEM's new offshore Alaska mineral development plan threatens vital fisheries and Indigenous rights.

#onexpedition Greetings from Indonesia: Our colleague Achim Schlüter is attending the 9th ESL IPB University Summer Course on “Ecotourism, Nature Conservation and Food Security,” bringing together participants from 25 countries. #ZMT #IPBUniversity #MarineGovernance #FoodSecurity

📚 Key takeaways:

✔️ All voices must be heard
✔️ MPAs should reflect local perspectives
✔️ Co-management and transparency are essential

To build resilient food systems, the United States of America doesn’t need more restrictions, it needs accountability, equity, and global cooperation.

The tuna trade shows why.

Global distribution and development of marine-climate interventions.

[5/5] L'écart entre innovation technologique et régulation est préoccupant. La 1/2 des interventions ne sont pas comparées entre elles limitant les choix éclairés. Sans gouvernance responsable ces projets risquent d’aggraver les déséquilibres qu’ils prétendent corriger. #geography #marinegovernance

Climate-related goals of marine interventions identified by survey respondents

[4/5] Malgré leur expansion la gouvernance reste insuffisante : seules 14% des interventions intègrent une évaluation éthique et 11% impliquent les communautés locales ou autochtones. Les risques sociaux, écologiques et de méfiance sont peu pris en compte. #geography #oceanclimate #marinegovernance

[3/5] Les interventions sont concentrées dans 37 zones marines, surtout là où les eaux se réchauffent plus vite que la moyenne mondiale, comme en Australie ou dans le Pacifique Nord. 92% des actions australiennes se déroulent dans la région de la Grande Barrière. #geography #marinegovernance

[2/5] Parmi les 332 intervenants interrogés, 71% agissent pour adapter les espèces et les écosystèmes au changement climatique. Les plus connues sont la restauration de coraux, le repeuplement de mangroves et les habitats artificiels (79% de notoriété chez les experts). #geography #marinegovernance

How Marine Carbon Removal Is Governed in the High Seas The ocean plays a key role in regulating our climate, absorbing 30% of carbon dioxide emissions and 90% of excess heat. With scientific consensus that carbon dioxide removal is needed to complement de...

Marine carbon dioxide removal could play a role in meeting climate goals, but with new technologies come new questions.

How will these activities be governed on the high seas? 🌊
