A podcast about B.C.’s watersheds, and the people who care about them.
There is a myth here in British Columbia that our rivers and lakes provide limitless, clean water. And certainly that was once the case in much of the province. But, due to resource extraction, poor water management and climate change, many communities are facing serious water shortages in the coming years.
We’ll be talking to people all over the province to find out about the challenges facing their local watersheds and what can be done to solve them.
