These oases of life, known as the <strong>Emperor Seamounts<\/strong>, are home to a rich variety of cold-water corals and sponges, as well as smaller creatures like crustaceans and sea stars.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>Like many other seamounts, they play a crucial role in the migration and life cycle of larger marine animals like blue, sperm, and humpback whales. Even birds, including the world&#8217;s oldest known wild bird\u2014a Laysan albatross known as Wisdom\u2014forage in this biodiversity hotspot.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<span id=\"seamountvideo\"><\/span>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Why are seamounts so important?\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IyC21YBOppY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Why are seamounts so important? Seamounts are oases of underwater life and must be protected to preserve ocean health. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p>There are many reasons why ocean life around the <strong>Emperor Seamounts<\/strong> is thriving. Rising more than 100m above the surrounding seafloor, the seamounts are flooded with a constant food supply from ocean currents. The food attracts small fish, which in turn attract larger predators, like tuna and sharks. A mix of hard and soft surfaces, ledges and depressions also provide a variety of habitats for marine life to flourish.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>The United States has protected the southernmost part of the <strong>Emperor Seamounts<\/strong> located in its national waters, the Papah\u0101naumoku\u0101kea Marine National Monument. Papah\u0101naumoku\u0101kea and the wider ocean area beyond hold a deep cosmological and traditional significance for living Native Hawaiian culture. It&#8217;s an ancestral environment and embodiment of the Hawaiian concept of kinship between people and the natural world.<\/p>\n\n<p>Unfortunately, the rest of the <strong>Emperor Seamounts<\/strong> on the high seas remain open to destructive human fishing activities. Although bottom fishing accounts for only 2.1% of all apparent fishing activity in the area, it has already devastated many vulnerable and slow-growing deep-sea ecosystems.<\/p>\n\n<p>Regional fisheries management organisations (RFMOs) are international bodies made up of countries that share an interest in managing fishing in a particular area. The RFMO responsible for managing fishing around the <strong>Emperor Seamounts <\/strong>is the North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC). Since its establishment in 2015, the NPFC&#8217;s measures to safeguard the <strong>Emperor Seamounts<\/strong> have proved inadequate. At the most recent NPFC meeting in April 2024, governments tried and again failed to stop bottom fishing to protect precious marine life.<\/p>\n\n<p>The science is clear \u2013 the <strong>Emperor Seamounts<\/strong> need urgent protection, but every fishing season, they are harmed because of RFMO\u2019s failure. Failing to protect them is yet another example of why we need the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/story\/so-we-have-a-global-oceans-treaty-what-now\/\">historic Global Ocean Treaty<\/a>, which gives governments the tools to create ocean sanctuaries around our most precious ecosystems on the high seas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>However, the Treaty can only enter into force once at least 60 governments have written it into their national laws. If governments are serious about protecting at least 30% of the ocean by 2030, they must urgently ratify the Treaty. At the same time, they must start developing proposals to fully protect vulnerable marine ecosystems like the <strong>Emperor Seamounts<\/strong>. At present, the first and most immediate step governments serious about ocean protection can take towards protecting this area is to stop bottom fishing.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<section\n\t\t\tclass=\"boxout
