格陵兰议会周四一致通过一项提案，要求政府起草立法，禁止深海采矿和勘探，至少到2029年底。渔业是格陵兰经济的驱动力，而狩猎在许多当地社区的生计中发挥着至关重要的作用。世界自然基金会格陵兰分会欢迎这一举措，称其为“朝着正确方向迈出的重要一步”，并补充说：“关于深海采矿对海洋环境可能产生的后果，目前的科学知识仍相对有限。”
Greenland's parliament on Thursday unanimously adopted a proposal asking the government to draft legislation banning deep-sea mining and exploration until at least the end of 2029. Fisheries are the driver of Greenland's economy, while hunting plays a crucial role for livelihoods in many local communities.WWF Greenland hailed the move as an "important step in the right direction", adding: "There is still relatively limited scientific knowledge about the potential consequences of deep-sea mining for the marine environment."
这个丹麦自治领的居民对深海采矿可能对环境造成的后果持谨慎态度。但据信埋藏在这片广袤北极岛屿地下和海底的未开采矿产，可能在许多新兴科技和国防工业中发挥关键作用，也被视为该领地从丹麦独立的潜在跳板，这一目标得到了该岛5.7万居民中大多数人的支持。格陵兰长期以来一直获得丹麦政府的补贴，补贴约占其经济的20%，若要独立生存，它将需要巨额投资。
Inhabitants of the Danish autonomous territory are wary of the consequences that deep-sea mining could have on the environment. But the unexploited minerals believed to lie under the vast Arctic island's ground and seabed which could play a crucial role in many new tech and defence industries are also seen as a potential springboard to the territory's independence from Denmark, a goal backed by a majority of the island's 57,000 inhabitants. Greenland has long received subsidies from the Danish government that account for about 20 percent of its economy, and it would need massive investment to survive on its own.
根据周四通过的提案，格陵兰政府可以每两年延长一次暂停令。“有了这个决定，格陵兰有机会发出强烈信号，即当我们面临开发海洋资源的新形式时，必须认真对待海洋、自然和我们生计的保护，”世界自然基金会表示。周四的投票发生在美国总统唐纳德·特朗普表示石油、天然气和矿产开发即将在格陵兰开始的一天后，尽管他没有特别提到深海采矿。
Under the proposal adopted Thursday, Greenland's government can extend the moratorium in two-year increments." With this decision, Greenland has the opportunity to send a strong signal that the protection of the ocean, nature, and our livelihoods must be taken seriously when we are faced with new forms of exploiting marine resources," the WWF said. Thursday's vote came a day after US President Donald Trump said oil, gas and mineral exploitation was about to begin in Greenland, though he did not specifically mention deep-sea mining.
格陵兰于2021年暂停了所有新的石油和天然气勘探许可证。该领地尚未进行工业规模的石油或天然气钻探，那里的恶劣条件和基础设施薄弱使得作业充满挑战。特朗普威胁之后，华盛顿在九月与格陵兰和丹麦领导人签署了一项安全协议。

Greenland halted all new oil and gas exploration permits in 2021. There has been no industrial-scale oil or gas drilling in the territory, where harsh conditions and poor infrastructure make operations challenging.
