Planet B: Everything Must Change – Episode 4 (Water)
How have we come to see our oceans as either a vehicle for trade or a site of limitless resources? In the fourth episode of Planet B, host Harpreet Kaur Paul asks why water, the most basic necessity of life, always has a price.
Instead of treating the ocean as a space for frictionless accumulation, can we imagine a "blue new deal" that refuses to carve up water into routes and resources controlled by the most powerful?
