Nice, France: UN Secretary -General Antonio Guterres said on Monday that the world could not give the world’s deep oceans “wild West” at the beginning of a global sea summit.
Global leaders are attending the United Nations Maritime Conference in Nice as the United Nations emphasizes controversial rules for mining for the terms of the World Minerals and Plastic Pollution Agreement.
US President Donald Trump has immediately brought the debate around the deep maritime mining, and the US has moved towards the US search and surpassed global efforts to organize the newborn sector.
The International Sebard Authority, which holds a circle on the sea floor outside the National Waters, is meeting to discuss the global mining code to organize mining in the depths of the ocean in July.
Guterres said he supported the talks and emphasized caution because countries visit the “new water on the mining of the sea floor”. “The deep sea cannot become a wild west,” he said.
Many countries oppose marine floor mining, and France is hoping that more countries in the Nice will join a Mortorium unless there is further information about the environmental impact of this exercise. French President Emmanuel Macron said an importance in deep maritime mining is an “international need”.
The French president said, “I think the hunter is a passion for starting economic action that will affect the deep seabed, disrupt the geometric, destroying it, and the irreparable carbon is drowning – when we don’t know anything about it.”
He said in remarks of the thunder claping that the deep sea, Greenland and Antarctica were “not for sale”. Macron said the global agreement to rule over the high seas has been substantially confirmed to classify it to a great extent and explain the timeline without any timeline.
The agreement in 2023 needed confirmation from 60 signatures to become international law, and Macron said that number was “reached, which we have to say that a high sea deal will be implemented.”
On Monday, other promises of maritime security are expected in Nice, where about 60 heads of state and government will join thousands of business leaders, scientists and civil society workers.
On Monday, the UK is expected to announce a partial ban on trolling down its half marine areas, and will eliminate the devastating fishing procedure on the summit’s agenda.
The trolling below has been observed that large fishing nets have been dragged across the sea floor, and everything in its way is sweeping, the process has been surprisingly caught in a recent documentary by British naturalist David Atnaburo.
Greenpes welcomed the UK’s announcement on trolling, but said in a statement that it was a “long -term”. Macron said on Saturday that France would ban trolling in some of its maritime safe areas, but environmental groups had criticized that they were not going enough.
French Minister of Environment Again Penier-Runcher told reporters on Sunday that other countries would make “important announcements” about the formation of new maritime secure areas.
Samua guided the route last week, and announced that 30 % of its national water would be in protection with the formation of nine marine parks. Despite the global agreement to achieve 30 % coverage by 2030, only eight percent of the global oceans globally have been nominated for maritime protection.
But even very few people are truly considered safe, because some countries do not impose any rules about the lack of finance in the Marine Zone or to enforce any rules. The nations will face calls for coughing the lost finance for maritime protection, which is the least financing of the 17 sustainable development goals of the United Nations.
In the summit, the number of states on the small island is expected to demand money and political help for the looting of rising oceans, maritime trash and fish. The summit will not sign a close legal agreement, like a climate police officer or a contract negotiation.
But diplomats and other observers said that if the leaders arrived on this occasion, it could mark the most important turning point in the protection of the global sea. “The Ocean Conservation Group, the founder of the Prestin Sea, said,” The United Nations Ocean Conference gives us the opportunity to transform words into a bold and proud action. “
