If I understand this correctly the obligation to remove these structures from internetational law that the UK has agreed to. ISTM that the point of this law is to protect the ecosystems of the waters -- it seems to be operating on the assumption that leaving these structures in the ocean causes them to remain a disruption to the ecosystem. A sort of, you made your mess, now clean up after yourself, rationale. But if leaving these structures in the ocean causes them to to become marine habits and is actually a net positive on the marine ecosystem, then the goals of this policy are at odds with its actual effects. So now I wonder how hard it is to go back to OSPAR with evidence that leaving the structures in place is a good thing and getting the policy changed to allow that. Hopefully the OSPAR convention is less dysfunctional than the US Congress?
