Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no deep sea low enough
Ain't no potato large enough
To keep me from talking bout you, sea~
In episode 1 of Peak & Plunge, we talk to special guest Mark Haver about the controversial practice of Deep Sea Mining. As Global Policy Advisor for the Sustainable Ocean Alliance, an environmental consultant, and advocate for action on our oceans and our climate, Mark helps us ask... do our future cell phones, cars, and green energy lie at the bottom of the sea? Or is this just another environmental disaster waiting to happen?
