Why would some old fart past their life expectancy want to make more money and allow others to profit by any means possible without repercussions. I just don't understand it, unless it's some jealous derangement disorder where he is hell-bent on destroying life for everyone and future generations.

Surely they are not trying to apply US law to NORI-D, although both TMC and the current US administration have that special kind of arrogance…Where would the mining take place? Off the southeastern US coast? The former Lockheed Martin claim in the Clarion Clipperton Zone?

Of course this WILL harm oceans. What do they mean "could". The next generation or two will be living in an underground bunker and will have never seen seawater.

So now we’re gonna pillage the ocean floor? Our species is such a sickness.

I haven’t read the article yet, but Metals Company is an especially pernicious group that now has found in the US king a powerfully, savage ally.

The whole world including most republicans are now seeing what the Dems seen all along! A monster that thinks he can take over the world and enrich himself in the process!!

No doubt there'll be crypto payments and kickbacks to the Trump crime family

Panama Canal is already Blackrock

Although it’s a Canadian mining company, watch Trump partner with them. Money is king with this administration.

Worry? We KNOW it will drastically hurt our dying oceans. When will we stop?
