"We wanted to assess how metal production using either land ores or polymetallic nodules can contribute to climate change.

Key Points: 
  • "We wanted to assess how metal production using either land ores or polymetallic nodules can contribute to climate change.
  • The study found that producing battery metals from nodules can reduce active human emissions of CO2e by 70-75%, stored carbon at risk by 94% and disruption of carbon sequestration services by 88%.
  • The researchers found that polymetallic nodules could deliver metals for one billion EV batteries with up to 11.6 Gt less of CO2e compared to terrestrial sources.
  • We are working on taking carbon out of the atmosphere, not adding it," said Gerard Barron, Chairman and CEO of DeepGreen Metals.
