SS Forum Presents Coalter Lathrop: Who Owns the Ocean?
The deepest reaches of our oceans are among the least explored places on Earth. Yet they have become the location of an international race for essential minerals. As governments and corporations push to mine the deep seabed, a fundamental question has emerged: Who will determine the fate of the world’s oceans? For Coalter Lathrop, that question is not just about the oceans—it’s about the future of the international order itself. A world-leading international lawyer and marine cartographer, Lathrop advises governments and international organizations on the world’s most complex ocean and territorial disputes. He is the perfect person to help us understand the complex dynamics involved in the current conflict over seabed resources. For many of us who live beside the Pacific Ocean, this issue is deeply personal. It’s about the future of our shared planet—and whether the rules that have governed our oceans for generations can withstand the pressures of a fast-changing world. $20 Members | $25 Public | Youth 19 and Under $5 Dec 6, 3:00pm BUY TICKETS ($5 – $25)
