In this episode, we'll provide background on the emerging industry of deep sea mining and why it has become a controversial topic. We'll explain what deep sea mining entails - extracting mineral deposits from the seabed in areas outside national jurisdictions.

The potential benefits include accessing valuable metals and rare earth elements needed for green technologies like electric vehicles and wind turbines. However, environmental groups have raised concerns about the potential damage to fragile deep sea ecosystems that are still poorly understood.

Norway recently became the first country to open up areas of its continental shelf to deep sea mineral activities, sparking intense debate between those prioritizing resource extraction for the green transition and those advocating more precaution to protect the marine environment.
