We explore the ocean through a climate change lens. We strive to make the ocean healthier by listening to those who work on it, study it, live next to and are inspired by it. We help you understand ocean science, innovation and technology, and how climate change affects our ocean and the world at large. You can reach us by email: Thebroadcast@cbc.ca
