Living with Warming Waters

The film explores the gap between what research has shown and what the general public knows and understands about the impacts and socioeconomic consequences of the effect of climate change on marine waters. Over three months, Jean-Yves Collet traveled to coastal areas in France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom. He interviewed scientists, professors, farmers, fishermen, students and the man on the street to size their awareness of the impacts of climate change on European marine environments. These include rises in sea levels, changes in ocean biodiversity and sea currents, ice melt and ocean acidic levels.
