The Planktos ship did not even leave Fort Lauderdale, Florida and has not yet loaded the iron ore dust for transportation. Planktos has not been able to secure EPA permits to legally take the iron ore dust to sea. In fact, it does not appear that Planktos has the organizational abilities to deploy the iron ore dust for some time, if at all.
I agree the Galapagoes site is a PR nightmare and they should scrap it all together, but looks as if they are facing legal pressure not to dump the iron-ore.
