It\u2019s time for a ban,\u201d says Cindy Baxter, Chairperson of KASM.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cSeabed mining poses multiple risks to the ocean. Scientists have expressed serious concerns over the multiple potential impacts. Sediment plumes extending tens of kilometres could smother marine life far beyond the mine site and affect fish, seabirds and other wildlife. Noise from the operation would harm marine mammals, and life on the seafloor will be destroyed.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>Jessica Desmond, oceans campaigner at Greenpeace Aotearoa, says too little is known about the ecosystems targeted by miners, and this should be enough to warrant caution.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cSeabed mining could cause severe and potentially irreversible damage to the ocean and to the marine life that calls it home,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cExtractive industries have done a lot of harm to our blue planet and we must not open up a new frontier for more of the same. It\u2019s time we learnt from past mistakes.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cWe are in a biodiversity and climate emergency and we cannot afford to add another unnecessary pressure on the planet\u2019s life support systems. The ocean needs protection, not mining. \u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>Phil McCabe of the DSCC says New Zealand\u2019s position on seabed mining is of regional and global importance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cWith the depths of the Pacific Ocean at the centre of attention for the advancing global seabed mining industry, Fiji, Papua New Guinea and Vanuatu have called for moratoria in their waters,\u201d he says.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cPacific communities at large, who rely upon a healthy ocean for their daily well-being, are calling for a ban on deep-sea mining. They\u2019re observing the declining state of ocean health first hand and know that rather than adding another stressor, we need to be relieving human pressures.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>Baxter says: \u201cAustralia\u2019s Northern Territory government, after a nine-year moratorium, has studied the potential impacts of seabed mining, and is <a href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.nt.gov.au\/mediaRelease\/34139\">now implementing a full ban<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cAnd this is what we should also do in Aotearoa &#8211; our seabed should be protected, not sold off to mining companies.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\t\t\t<section\n\t\t\tclass=\"boxout post-16190 \"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-category=\"Take Action Boxout\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-action=\"Image\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-label=\"n\/a\"\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"cover-card-overlay\"\n\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/petition\/petition-ban-seabed-mining\/\" \n\t\t\t><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2021\/04\/64cce2ab-whale-tail-tonga-bg-1024x677.jpg\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsrcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2021\/04\/64cce2ab-whale-tail-tonga-bg-600x397.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2021\/04\/64cce2ab-whale-tail-tonga-bg-1024x677.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2021\/04\/64cce2ab-whale-tail-tonga-bg-768x508.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2021\/04\/64cce2ab-whale-tail-tonga-bg-510x337.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2021\/04\/64cce2ab-whale-tail-tonga-bg.jpg 1200w\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 358px, (min-width: 780px) 313px, 88px\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\talt=\"\" title=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t\/>\n            \t\t\t<div class=\"boxout-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"boxout-heading medium\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-ga-category=\"Take Action Boxout\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-ga-action=\"Title\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-ga-label=\"n\/a\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/petition\/petition-ban-seabed-mining\/\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPETITION: Ban seabed mining in Aotearoa\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"boxout-excerpt\">Seabed mining is a new threat to the oceans.
