In this episode of The Green Scene, the team dives into the ocean and explores the challenges we face to keep it clean, and healthy. For those of us on the coast, gazing at the sea, we may just see a lot of water, but there is SO much more beneath it. We will be chatting about this wide expanse of water, the shoreline and its importance to the planet and for our tourism in Durban, and how what happens upstream on our rivers matters… plus lots more.
