Please join us online for a book launch and discussion of our recently released book, with co-authors @tdavenport711 and Ruth Mackenzie. Delighted that @ChristinaVoigt2 and @CymiePayne will join the discussion, with @niluferoral moderating.
Enjoyed being on a great CCIL panel with natasha Affolder @AllardLaw @saptarishi_b and @envwaterloo colleague @KelseyTLeonard on the interface of science and policy in international law.

The common heritage status of deep sea minerals requires that the benefits of mining are shared equitably by humanity as a whole. Our paper explores recent ISA proposals. @envwaterloo #deepseamining sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
A thoughtful article by science journalist @saraschonhardt that focuses on why the interests of the Global South should be at the centre of research and discussion on solar radiation management. @envwaterloo

Balancing the tradeoffs between marine geoengineering and ocean biodiversity requires greater attention to deep ocean ecology and open and participatory governance. Our contribution examines the risks and paths forward.@ENVwaterloo @SEEDWaterloo @BalsillieSIA @geoengineering1
Should we alter the ocean to fight climate change? In a new paper in @ScienceMagazine, DOSI experts urge caution. They explain the risks for #deepsea life and call on researchers, governments, and industry to carefully assess tradeoffs. Press release here: dosi-project.org/obcis-and-d…

Excited to be sharing work developed with colleagues at the @commonwealthsec and @ISBAHQ on liability regime for deep seabed mining with colleagues @cambridgelaw @CEENRG @Lauterpacht_Ctr on Nov 29. Papers available @CIGIonline bit.ly/2DKiD7n @BalsillieSIA @envwaterloo
Can we protect global commons? Join @SEEDWaterloo Prof & @CIGIonline SFellow @ancraik for his lecture on ‚Liability for Enviro Harm from Deep Seabed Mining: Towards a Hybrid Approach‘ on Thursday, 29 Nov 2018 - 2.00pm @Lauterpacht_Ctr @cambridgelaw @CEENRG shar.es/aag3mX
@CIGIonline has published another paper in deep seabed liability series. A number of excellent papers to come by Hannah Lily, Ruth MacKenzie and Tara Davenport, among others. Stay tuned...@ISBAHQ @commonwealthsec
"In the absence of strict liability, operators are able to externalize the costs of measures taken to protect the environment that go beyond mere negligence," writes @ancraik. #climateaction #seabedmining cigionline.org/publications/…
