Description: Part one (24 min.) explains how watercourses flowing into the seas are being polluted and coastal areas are being destroyed. The catastrophic effects on marine habitats as well as on the health and livelihoods of people living near such blighted areas are discussed, and some fruitful protests and surprising innovations are brought to light.  Part two's (24 min.) program travels to Spain, Brazil, Iran, and Fiji to observe efforts to mitigate severe ecological damage to these sensitive regions, places primarily spoiled by water pollutions, with causes as varied as upland agricultural runoff and the rupture of a mine tailings dam.
