When you visit the coast, what do you expect to see? Most people might go for the beautiful coastal landscapes or a chance to see wildlife. In this episode, we speak to two people who go to the coast for two less expected kinds of views - one that lies beneath the waves, and one that unfortunately rests on our beaches.
We hear from a Dalhousie eelgrass researcher Dr. Kristina Boerder, who shares the trials and tribulations of conducting coastal research when access is hard to find. We also speak to Angela Riley - the leader of Scotian Shores, a marine debris removal group - who explains why marine debris (like lobster traps) and beach litter (like dog poop bags) impede our access to health and clean coastal environments, and why a lack of coastal access makes it so hard to clean them up.
