In this episode, Eva van Heukelom talks to Samantha Robb, a South African lawyer specialising in deep-sea mining, to dive into one of the most pressing questions for our planet’s future: should we start mining the ocean floor before we understand it?

We unpack what deep-sea mining actually is, how it’s governed under international law, and why scientists and lawyers alike are warning against rushing into it. The deep ocean, a world we know less about than the surface of the moon, holds both extraordinary life and the metals needed for our clean-energy transition. But can we pursue one without destroying the other?

Join us for a conversation that cuts through the complexity and asks what responsible stewardship of the deep sea should look like before it’s too late.
