Urban watersheds: Runoff to renewal in Toronto
Alexandra Cousteau and crew search for the lost creeks that now flow under Toronto's roadways.
In "Urban watersheds: Runoff to renewal," Alexandra Cousteau's Expedition Blue Planet explores the hidden world of water under Toronto, Canada's largest city. In this short film, Cousteau examines the role of rivers in our urban ecosystems and interviews Lake Ontario Waterkeeper Mark Mattson and Lost Rivers Founder Helen Mills — among others — to learn of their vision of a healthy urban hydrosphere.
