This podcast is for anyone who is interested in the most important thing in the world.
Water.
In this podcast we will explore a bunch of different global problems that may not come to mind when you think about water, but they most certainly boil down to how we use this precious resource. We will talk to experts and figure out all the secrets about water, it’s uses, and the organisms that depend on it.
In season One we cover a huge range of water issues ranging from ghost fishing, fish fraud, to how climate change affects locust plagues across Africa, and plastics in the ocean.
Episodes will begin to be released on World Water Day March 22nd. Story telling episodes will be released every monday. Our full length interviews with experts will be released as special "Deep Dive" episodes throughout the week.
The ABP is establishing a conservation Aquarium in the Prairies to help tell the Story of Water.
