Undersea charities.
Connect them.
TerraMar is not unique.
Blue Prosperity - Waitt
Oceans 5:- Rockefeller
LDF - DiCaprio
etc etc etc.
Why was Leonardo DiCaprio awarded by the Clinton Foundation?
For 2 million to "Oceans 5"?
This goes so much deeper.
Watch the water.
Here is a PDF from Blue Prosperity about making strong laws
To fence off ocean territories.
Seems to me this would be great for owners of private islands
Who want privacy and a legal framework to sue people
Who take their boats into PRIVATE OCEAN PROPERTY
And look at all the other groups that are involved…
If a territory is blocked out and no fishing is allowed there
And no transport is allowed through that block
Then the coast guards and navies have no real need
To patrol there, do they?
An Overview of Seabed Mining Including the Current State of Development, Environmental Impacts, and Knowledge Gaps
https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2017.00418/full
Rising demand for minerals and metals, including for use in the technology sector, has led to a resurgence of interest in exploration of mineral resources located on the seabed. Such resources, whether seafloor massive (polymetallic) sulfides around hydrothermal vents, cobalt-rich crusts (CRCs) on the flanks of seamounts or fields of manganese (polymetallic) nodules on the abyssal plains, cannot be considered in isolation of the distinctive, in some cases unique, assemblages of marine species associated with the same habitats and structures. In addition to mineral deposits, there is interest in extracting methane from gas hydrates on continental slopes and rises. Many of the regions identified for future seabed mining are already recognized as vulnerable marine ecosystems (VMEs). Since its inception in 1982, the International Seabed Authority (ISA), charged with regulating human activities on the deep-sea floor beyond the continental shelf, has issued 27 contracts for mineral exploration, encompassing a combined area of more than 1.4 million km2, and continues to develop rules for commercial mining. At the same time, some seabed mining operations are already taking place within continental shelf areas of nation states, generally at relatively shallow depths, and with others at advanced stages of planning. The first commercial enterprise, expected to target mineral-rich sulfides in deeper waters, at depths between 1,500 and 2,000 m on the continental shelf of Papua New Guinea, is scheduled to begin early in 2019.
