Barrier Islands | Against the Current: Life on the Eastern Shore | Clip | Local, USA

The barrier islands of Virginia's Eastern Shore are more than just places to visit - they have helped create the dynamic environments of land and water around them. But with rising sea levels, the islands are vulnerable to the tides that are reshaping them and the community nearby.
AGAINST THE CURRENT: LIFE ON THE EASTERN SHORE: A powerful look at how residents of Virginia’s Eastern Shore are subject to rising sea waters and the challenges it has on their lives and livelihood. How can this community shed light on conversations happening around these issues of climate change? A co-production of WHRO Public Media and WORLD.
