🌊 Explore #MiningTheUnknowns, our cross-border probe into Asia-Pacific deep-sea mining. South Korea has a hand in nearly every stage of the seabed supply chain, but no law for mining in international waters. Experts warn that gap puts Earth's least explored habitat at risk. loom.ly/rCtRGy8

The deep ocean is Earth’s last frontier. Before scientists can even catalog its species, a global race is on to mine the seabed for critical minerals. Today, @earthjournalism.bsky.social launches "Mining the Unknowns," a 5-part investigation across Asia and the Pacific. 🧵👇

🌍💸 Liệu tuyên bố "trung hòa carbon" đó có chân thật không hay chỉ là chiêu trò "tẩy xanh"? Chúng tôi mới ra mắt một khóa học ngắn miễn phí về việc đưa tin về hiện tượng "tẩy xanh" (greenwashing), tập trung vào các tín chỉ carbon và hoạt động bù trừ carbon tự nguyện. 🌿 loom.ly/kKz74fc
