ABOLISH SEISMIC BLASTING SPECIAL PROSPECTING AUTHORITY PERMITS (SPA)
A Special Prospecting Authority (SPA) is a specific type of permit that allows #companies to buy access to large areas of our #oceans to use #SeismicBlasting to search for #oil and #gas, and Carbon Capture and Storage locations below the ocean floor.
Seismic blasts are how the oil and gas industry surveys the ocean floor. Seismic vessels tow an array of airguns and audio receivers (hydrophones) behind them in the water.
If approved, it will be the world’s largest 3D #SeismicBlasting project on record.
Companies’ applications for plans to conduct seismic blasting go to the regulator NOPSEMA for approval, and then to the administrator NOPTA to be granted an SPA permit.
This action is about safeguarding critical marine #habitats, preserving #biodiversity, and protecting the livelihoods of #communities that depend on healthy oceans.
Der gemeine #Nazi galt in #Deutschland ja lange als ausgestorben. Nun verbreitet er sich jedoch unerwartet rasch wieder, wird erneut zur Plage und gefärdet die #Diversität des #Habitats.
Da hilft nur, die natürlichen Fressfeinde des Schädlings zu kultivieren:
At some point, we need to start pushing even more for public transit and walkable cities. When this happens we must push for wildlife crossings! This will be crucial to help our planet and curb climate change!
Climate change is an immediate threat to the majority of the world's population.
We need a local, regional, state, national, and international "moon shot" type of concentration of effort using available resources while developing and advancing new science and technologies to counteract the damage humans have caused.
Without this type of all-out, universal cooperation, human civilization, and perhaps humanity itself, are in imminent danger of extinction.
By relying on the #knowledge that's long been known, rather than the "just because we can" arrogance of #capitalism, we can stop the long, slow, and now imminent #suicide of our #species.
#Libya is far from the only place where #dam collapse has directly caused large human death tolls.
