Here we focus on the ocean as a resource: e.g., for drinking water and minerals. Ocean and sea water contains many elements of Mendeleev’s Table. This means the oceans could become part of solving the critical raw mineral challenge generated by the massive requirements of our clean energy technologies. Research is needed to determine whether we can extract these minerals in an efficient manner, and to gauge the impact this would have on oceanic biodiversity & environment
