SEA CHANGE, a special presentation of NOVA, is a story about a sea within the sea, a body of water that is warming 99% faster than the global ocean. What happens here, for the animals in the water, for the jobs dependent upon them, and for the millions of people along its shores, is likely to happen worldwide. We are at a crossroads for the future of the Gulf – and our oceans. Does it retain enough of its biodiversity and regenerative strength to weather the human-induced storm? Is the sheer beauty of the place and spectacular range of its creatures enough to wake us to the stakes? A fascinating tale about a regional location with profound global implications, this three-part prime time documentary series premieres July 24 at 9 p.m. ET on PBS, the PBS app, and the NOVA YouTube channel. A digital series produced by indigenous filmmakers in collaboration with Vision Maker Media and NOVA accompanies SEA CHANGE.
