The #HighSeasTreaty "aims to protect #biodiversity in our #oceans on a global basis, bringing the high seas and #seabeds, which no country owns, under an agreed international law.
Under the treaty, countries and [their] companies have to do and publish an environment impact assessment for any projects they are planning for the high seas — which is particularly timely as the contemporary “gold rush” is for #minerals and rare earths on and under the #OceanFloor."
