Canadian Museum of Nature, Ottawa, Ontario
Speaker: Alanna Mitchell, journalist and author

Science writer Alanna Mitchell recounts her quest to discover the health of the global ocean. She identifies signs of "sickness": decreasing pH and oxygen, and increasing temperature. Mitchell recounts her journey that led her from a growing sense of despair to the choice of hope. She concludes with the belief that the future is in our hands and the story we choose to tell is powerful.

This lecture was part of Voices: A Canadian Perspective on Water, the RBC National Lecture Series.
