The island nations and results companies are exploring the possibility of mining the Pacific Ocean of full Renewable Energy on the Prime Minister of the cook. Islands is one pacific lead us considering extracting minerals from the deep sea. Weve been blessed with a resource that sits and now think ocean, its still good sitting on the surface and being afraid of them knowing that some island is the you will have some of the impacts. Our sion cannot handle this. I really do not feel like the technology is there at all to be even considering doing this and a sustainable fashion in the seconds of to special reports. 11 east examines a deep sea mining is dividing the pacific the the, the, its easy to sell the cook islands as a postcard card on it. Because the 19 to the Prime Minister, mark brown, a valuable lesson, he needs to diversify his countrys tourism reliance. Economy. When depends any kids in 2020, many of the results shut down in a single here. Economy dropped like 25 percent. It was tough when co with came, the 1st thing was we did was close at borders. And essentially we close the borders for 2 years. That was very, very difficult on our industry. And on, on the private sector in particular, coven was definitely a wakeup call for us that we must be supply or economy. We dont know what the future holds in terms of the Tourism Industry globally, and regionally. So definitely for us, the need to diversify has taken on greater significance much more importance, which is why l Minerals Industry is going to be so important for us in the future. If given the green lights, the Minerals Industry will involve raging this a full 5 kilometers long as the Ocean Surface are most controlled mining vehicle used to soccer golf o size roles. These are known as holly, metallic, known choose. I guess i include both manganese and other minerals needed to pallets green technology, the rocks of palms from the deep sea through a hydraulic price to ship on the surface. We see a country being a leader of this particular industry. Not only is a deriving income to help protect our sales, but also playing out pop in helping the world transition to green energy even before the pens and making the quick islands economy was facing its fish and colleges in a country thats 99. 00 to send both of agriculture is small scale black, Honda Pacific nations. Many young people who know the seas seeking higher paying jobs to send money back home to their families. Full of 5 co, kyle lenses leave and work in australia or new zealand assigned to the next. It is a band and houses in villages across the country. The Prime Minister says theyve c mining could bring social, as well as financial benefits by providing jobs that will encourage the population to stay. People go with monies. So currently, many of our people out children, grandchildren, theyve moved overseas to work in industries that pay the more money, such as in the horticultural industry in new zealand. Picking apples while we refer to the minerals, these are al golden apples. And if developed properly, we have an opportunity for our people into collect our own apples which are sitting at the bottom of the ocean. Is tourism with the results. Well, from dave c, mining, the Prime Minister has boldly claimed his small country could become the divide or no way of the pacific. Weve got in place a financial regime, which involves tx ation royalties and so forth. And were certainly looking at the stablish spend all the southern well from the cook islands has given out Ocean Exploration licenses to 3 Mining Companies which of or says on shop, on the biggest islands, main streets assign these potential new industry could help these small South Pacific nation emerge from the doldrums. There are economic risks. The cook islands isnt the 1st nation to try. Theyve seen mining in 2011. The Mexican Government issued an exploration license to raises company. But just so i didnt know what to go ahead with the mining thomas. Its now being so its a 2000000000. 00 and a ledge losses of future profit. The company in that dispute odyssey was denied a mining permits on the grounds. Each project could have 5. So total habitats. However, a mexican legal tribunal found the governments refusal was unlawful, some like whose fia, a similar scenario i see. Because odyssey is a contractor and shared hold out of see, i see one of the 3 beneficiaries of exploration licenses. And what is the spelling supposed and told 1. 00, oh, 1. 00 east. It has no legal rights to so in the cook islands. But Jacqueline Evans and environmental list to help set up the cook islands moraine parks. One of the Worlds Largest says it leaves the nation vulnerable. Im very concerned because actually in the legislation there is no possibility to just decide not to issue a license just because we changed them on and decided to take up a Different Development option. Um, so we could potentially be saved for that. Are you worried if you dont go ahead with a mining permit that youll governments could be sorry. I think our legislation has a safe guides that are in place in terms of our legislation in terms of our regulations to ensure that we are protected as a people. One of the things that we made sure that we mean back on this journey that there are levels of protection both from a legal perspective, from an environmental perspective, but also from a financial perspective that these measures in place to ensure that we operate as with good sound regulatory laws and regulations, if its not feasible, if its not viable, then it wont be done. But its as simple as that. The across the pacific peoples livelihoods depends on a healthy moraine environments. The trance of fisheries is a key reason why 7 nations in the region, vehemently oppose. Theyve seen mining with the cook islands and 3 of the pacific countries inside for binding their fees. It could divide the range in their already risk, and thats just the columns at the moment. So if we dont work with our neighbors, that could be affected by this activity. I do see this is continuing, rather than looking at the potential of creating a rift. I would encourage countries to respect the decisions that each country is going to make in regards to any resource in their own jurisdiction. The despite the preschool inflaming tensions, the Prime Minister believes dave c mining could help pacific nations lose the finances post tackling Climate Change. The region is one of the worst affected by global warming, passive by rising sea levels, routes and cycle loans. We have been that the front line of Climate Change for a number of years while the world is trying to get out g 20 countries to commit to reducing Carbon Emissions and reducing face of Climate Change. We are always ceiling that here. So we can help out to help the world, these minerals not only provide an opportunity for income for our country, but it also provides an opportunity for us to contribute to the worlds pushed to green energy and reducing Carbon Emissions. Were doing them a favor if you like. The strain leon has viewed it strongly economy of tobacco, fossil fuels like cold video pushed to cope. Climate change is one of the many nations of submitted to necessary combinations play 2052000000000 electric tubs will be needed globally to meet that target at these Green Energy Festival in sydney. Theres a lot of interest in such b. C, Mining Companies say the industry is vital to deal with the batteries for clients and how it, these costs being raised to a piece of fence about sustainability of respond likely minerals instead of plundering the when youre talking at money to 90, to might sustainable, lose practical obviously if you take converging material for ground, i had my to use it. So this time youve got to have an extraction. We will reach the point where all the materials that go into the batteries are infect recyclable. Many consumers here, a weary of Mining Minerals from the to see. Do you think we need to go into the ocean all these minerals . I guess ultimately its like what is the ultimate Environmental Impact . Not, i think weve done enough sort of on this alarms, outgoing, sort of down into the items that theyve been once it, you know, id be buying cars today. Going, it said the night before delicate environment. We probably need to get out of a one back yard focus. Do you think we need to be going into the ocean suit . No, absolutely not. In the fall i knew that thats where the metal is coming from. A 100 percent. Put me offline this vehicle. Whats the light to say of the interest in electric vehicles here today varies fighting high. So the mazda merrick is the National President of the group. The launch is manufacturer of vehicles in australia and hes Company Alongside bmw rental and volkswagen support. Attending a moratorium on the c mining say a valid notes, you see the minerals in their electricity cruise until the Environmental Concerns im. It needs to be a deep understanding of the risks to the environment before we start 80 d. C. Bed mining on our customers really want to know a kid about where we saw the material from. They went to the sports, but we did, they tell the Group Believes they can make, consume it, demands for recycling and land space mining. Recycling is a key focus part of all well get. Weve made really Good Progress and terms of recycling, the materials and boxes. Today we actually have a box of the sale that has been produced with 100 percent recycled material. You know, its such as the car industry thats thinking twice about dave c mining. Thats because heck, the likes of microsoft, google and samsung. Theyre both annoyed to the mining of the worlds oceans. The environmental campaigning globally as played a huge role in pushing corporations consume is. I mean, vistas to reject the results extraction from out ocean. Yes, i see what i, whats called an ocean emergency. We must take action as you must sustainably manage the oceans resources for the google humanity and the health. The plan. Since schools for a moratorium on mining began up to 2020 to you in oceans conference in portugal, a growing list of nations have backs those concerns. This includes Major Economies like canada, germany, spain, and fox. The false suits you and that theyll be soon to do to exploit this tune to going from the pacific nations who want theyve seen mining up pushing back. Well the, the g 3, the countries are responsible for 80 percent of Carbon Emissions globally. You know, i think its makes a little bit of a patronizing attitude to try and tell us that we should not be doing what were doing because it may damage the ocean environment. The Carbon Emissions of all the civic countries put together what amounts to a matchstick in a far as spot. Were not the countries that put the plastic into the ocean within the certified the ocean. And were not one of those countries that have radioactive storage to exploded farms and al ocean. So it is somewhat patronizing, i find all or even insulting some to suggest that we would cause damage to the ocean by what we are proposing to do. Now pacific nation to wants, theyve seen money, also demanding the riots and mine in International Voices be on the territory. And theyre taking that supplies to the international c panel pharmacy in jamaica. These United Nations of philly, i said, bony, regulates, and licenses mining in International Voices. Effectively off of the planet surface, the ice size issued 31 expiration licenses to 22. 00 companies to say if osha mining is viable. Most of these permits they issued for a boss see trends near the cook islands, where the biggest known deposits are found. For a decade, the i say has argued over rules needed to govern osha mining. Now that debate has come to a head off the tense negotiations last july. Delegates agreed to discuss them all the time and next is meeting. While it may seem like a waiting for environmental is the i, as i have also is sit themselves the targets of adults thing regulations that will enable dave c, mining the stats. In late 2025, maureen. More expos dont. The alena jenko is concerned of the like a governance and monitoring to ensure deep c mining is done safely. There is a lot of work to it or to have a fully formed mining card. It is unclear at the moment who would show a compliance within the i say, and who would undertake inspections. It is unclear what the financial regime would be. So it is unclear how much if any mining prophets would have to be shared. And if so, with whom, all these questions are outstanding is the problematic. But up until recently they are in Compliance Mechanism has goes up reporting by the Mining Companies and states involved. And that is obviously problematic. Given that were talking about, see that mining files show underwater, which is very difficult to monitor on the 1st place. So to jacob, his reason, a book and numerous papers about the i a say, she says its a Secretive Organization that really consults openly. I think its fair to say that the eyesight is not the most transparent organization. And a lot of their Decision Making happens behind closed doors. And thats despite the fact that states have repeatedly asked for more transparency. It doesnt align with global could governance standards. But, but decisions continue to be might behind closed doors by and large the jangles, these small nations who carry out the sea money like the cook islands, good size, catastrophic consequences. On the international law, these countries can be financially liable if the results Company Courses at the sasa, on the ocean, the risk would be quite significant. Um, it would be significant for any country, but in particular for smaller economies way. Of course, the liability could make up a quite a proportion of the g d p. Well, economic county Environmental Concerns have been friends in the sense that in this debate to to juggle is concerned. The social implications have been largely ignored. Under the ice age rules, mining in International Boards is most benefits of humanity. But she says that hasnt been enough transparent consultations with islands communities because she, that money is a High Technology industry. So theyll be a lot of organization involved. So its not a show that see that mining would generate a lot of local jobs across the cook islands, weekly, volleyball matches, and much anticipated events that bring the Community Together in this village, on one of the country, small islands. I want to find out whos think about the sea money. Theyre the ones who be buying the any jobs creates it off to go into a governments information session. One woman things, mining the ocean of benefits. Every one, we will get so many benefits from the old age pension, your child welfare, all those kinds of things that others are not so certain. To be honest, i dont know much about the c mining months. Sometimes i dont deal with or Something Like that, which i dont hav
