Water Is Our Future

Mission Earth, Science 5 x 52' 2018 HD

The documentary series 'Water Is Our Future' tells the story of five exceptional regions which show that a huge problem for mankind can be solved: our handling of the element that’s vital for life - water. Every viewer is familiar with headlines about rivers being polluted, deserts spreading, wetlands drying up, drinking water problems, conflicts about access to water and sea levels rising. What few people know is that there are many projects in very different parts of the world which have already found solutions for these problems and are adopting new approaches. Visually powerful, highly relevant and future-oriented – a 5-part series on the whole issue of water – based on the model of Längengrad’s successful documentary series 'Islands of the Future'.
