Regulating project-associated greenhouse gas emissions from deep-seabed mining: a climate-sensitive EIA framework for the International Seabed Authority
Deep-seabed mining (DSM) presents a complex challenge, often framed as either a solution for clean energy or a threat to the ocean’s carbon sink. This Policy and Practice Review argues for a regulatory framework prioritizing the mitigation of project-associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions—specifically, those from extraction and processing.
Governing onboard carbon capture residues: a precautionary framework for sea disposal of calcium-looping by-products
International shipping's pursuit of decarbonization increasingly focuses on onboard carbon capture and storage (OCCS), with calcium looping (CaL) offering a technically attractive pathway. However, the resulting CaCO3-rich residues present a novel governance challenge, exceeding the scope of existing regulations like MARPOL. This study proposes a staged precautionary framework, emphasizing legal classification and auditable custody transfer, to address critical governance gaps concerning carbon-crediting, environmental assessment, and institutional responsibility.
