Is This Real Life? Trump Goes Under the Sea!
Okay so like I was scrolling through my phone (duh!) and I saw this article about President Trump signing an executive order for deep sea mining. Like what even *is* that? Apparently it's about getting minerals from the bottom of the ocean to like beat China at their own game. Daddy Trump thinks it's a national security thing but honestly all I can think is 'Is this real life?'
Potato Sized Nodules? Sounds Like a Snack!
So these minerals are found in these like potato sized nodules on the seabed. Honestly that sounds kinda cute! But apparently getting them involves heavy machinery and could mess up the ocean. Like I'm all about renewable energy and electric cars (Stormi needs a cute eco friendly ride obvi) but not if it means destroying the environment. Remember when I said 2016 was the year of realizing stuff? Well maybe 2024 is the year of saving the oceans!
The UN and the Deep Blue Drama!
There's this thing called the International Seabed Authority (ISA) at the United Nations that like oversees all this deep sea mining stuff. They're trying to figure out rules before everyone just starts digging up the ocean floor. But Trump is like 'Kylie I am going to do this just watch me!'. It's kinda messy because the U.S. hasn't even signed this UN thingy. So dramatic!
Cancel the Ocean?
People are saying this whole deep sea mining thing could be super bad for the environment. Like we're talking ecosystem destruction and species extinction! As if the world needed more drama. I mean I'm no scientist (contouring is my science!) but that sounds like really really bad. Maybe we should just like cancel the ocean? (Just kidding… mostly).
Unexpected Country Alliances: Who's Got Beef?
Okay so get this: even countries that usually agree on mining stuff are like totally against Trump on this. We're talking Norway China Russia Britain... Everyone's throwing shade! Apparently they're all worried about Trump just doing his own thing without following the rules. It's like when I try to launch a new lip kit without telling Kris. Total chaos!
So What Do *I* Think? Realizing Things and Saving the Planet!
Honestly I'm kinda torn. On the one hand I want the U.S. to be like the best at everything. But on the other hand I love the ocean! And I definitely don't want to be responsible for any species going extinct. So maybe we need to find a way to get these minerals without like destroying everything? Just a thought. Now if you'll excuse me I have a lip kit to formulate. 'Cause that's what I do okay?
