Abstract
The article discusses the economic implications of deep-sea mining and the environmental impact of sewage spills in England. A report by Planet Tracker warns that deep-sea mining could lead to a loss of at least half a trillion US dollars in value for various industries, emphasizing that preserving the ocean's abyssal plains is significantly more valuable than exploiting them. Additionally, the UK government plans to invest £180 million (approximately US$229 million) to prevent over 8,000 sewage spills in the next year, as part of a broader £3.1 billion initiative aimed at reducing storm overflow discharges by 2025.
