There’s a lot more to deep-sea mining than just the pure facts. It’s more than just minerals and the effects can be far beyond any financial or biophysical loss or gains. In this week’s episode, we talk with Danielle Nembhard and Esther Figueroa about the livelihood and the more-than-human impacts of deep-sea mining. By critically exploring different notions on how society is organized around consumerism and our relationships with the environment, we dissected issues on worldview, cultures, political economy, and knowledge systems. This is a mind-bending conversation you don’t want to miss!
