Experts debate how blue economy opportunities, such as bioprospecting and others, can be balanced with conserving vulnerable deep-sea ecosystems, such as those associated with seamounts. Attendees gain insights on reconciling economic and environmental priorities and will identify key scientific knowledge gaps to support evidence-based governance of the deep ocean.
Descripción de la sesión
This debate will explore whether deep-sea resource extraction can coexist with biodiversity protection. Panelists will include a Deep Ocean resource extraction representative, Deep Ocean conservationist, and two Deep Ocean scientists. The proposition argues that responsible extraction supports economic growth and innovation, while the opposition emphasizes the irreplaceable ecological value of deep-sea ecosystems. The science experts will provide data and evidence to help shape potential compromise solutions.Moderator
