Around the world, we're witnessing the increasingly extreme impacts of climate change and global warming. Floods, landslides, tsunamis, storms, heatwaves and droughts are all becoming more frequent and more intense. When disaster strikes, it usually manifests itself through water. 
But can water also be part of the solution to solving the climate crisis? To find out, we’re spending time in the lush swamps of Madagascar's mangroves and the wild beauty of our British Estuaries. Along the way, we’ll ask how a mere trillion dollars could help the cause. 
Featuring: Leah Glass (Blue Ventures, Madagascar), Rowan Hooper (Editor, New Scientist magazine), Alys Laver (Site Manager, Steart Marshes WWT). Presented by Roxy Furman.
