Let's Talk Science - Deep Sea-Mining In this episode we hear how carbon energy and digital technology demands are increasing which in turn means we need more green energy storage/batteries our green energy. However, it means an increase demand for rare earth elements - these elements are mined on land but with increasing demand attention has become focussed on sea floor deposits. This has implications that we may not be aware of such as causing more harm to the environment with the way these minerals are sourced, and release the co2 that are being stored in these nodules. The nodules have taken millions of years to be produced and they have the potential to be mined while other alternative to battery storage components are on the way. This episode exposes some of the results of our deep sea mining of these minerals. A very sobering episode. Play Episode
