Deep sea miners have turned water hoses on Greenpeace activists attempting to block their prospecting in the Pacific Ocean, according to footage released by the NGO.
For the past week, an international team of Greenpeace activists have been using canoes and dinghies to obstruct the Coco, a deep sea mining exploration vessel, as it collects data to file for a mining permit for waters between Mexico and Hawaii.
On Friday, after a Dutch court largely refused an application by miners to stop the protests, sailors on board the Coco appeared to turn hoses on the activists.

Some of the richest people on the planet are also involved heavily with mining, and that is only because their cost of doing business is the environment and other people’s health.
We’re trading those things for their profits
Here in Australia in fact, they’re running campaigns to try to convince people of how great their renewable gas is (despite only being 5% renewable at the moment, and it’s still incredibly inefficient to produce hydrogen compared to battery tech, whilst also wasting fresh water)
