Wetlands LIVE
“Wetlands provide a vital link between water and land and important benefits to people and the environment. Wetlands help regulate water levels within watersheds; improve water quality; reduce flood and storm damage; provide important fish and wildlife habitat; support fishing and other recreational activities; and provide inspiration. Wetlands are natural wonderlands of great value.” (http://wetlandslive.pwnet.org/)
Last month I was part of a distance learning broadcast from Boundary Bay near Vancouver Airport. The program was shown live all over the world and questions from students were sent in and answered on air. It was a fantastic experience and a great education for everyone involved. I never realized how much work goes into making a show like this – it made filmmaking look easy compared to shooting live. If you want to learn more about Wetlands and why they are so important, you can watch the show here
