Wholesale The High Seas: Greed, Power and the Unclaimed Ocean

In this guide to the high seas, one of the world’s leading voices on the issue tracks the races to exploit and protect our last frontier. Two-thirds of the world’s oceans lie beyond national borders, owned by all nations. The high seas are home to rich and biodiverse environments, but they are also exploited to an unprecedented degree. Out of sight and out of mind, industry and economic progress rule, with lax enforcement and apathy as the status quo. This book uncovers exploitative fishing practices, investigates the devastating impact of deep-sea mining, and holds Silicon Valley interventionists accountable for their optimistic and irresponsible climate change solutions. It’s a powerful manifesto calling for the protection and preservation of this final frontier. (This book may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
