Description
Should India mine the deep sea or protect it? How to balance discovery with stewardship?
In this video by Vajirao & Reddy Institute, we explain The Hindu editorial for UPSC 2026.
India holds 3 ISA contracts in 95,000 sq km in Central Indian Ocean, found 366 million tonnes of polymetallic nodules (Nickel, Cobalt, Copper). NIOT tested mining machine at 5,270m & MATSYA-6000 submersible will go to 6,000m by 2027.
But mining risks are huge - sediment plumes, irreversible damage to 23 new species found across 19 seamounts.
Editorial says science must also teach us to say NO. Focus on recycling & Mission LiFE.
