Carried by Water explores stories of movement revolving around water as a force of nature, a resource and a pillar of well-being. Season One explores the legacies and lessons learned from Super typhoon Haiyan / Yolanda, which made landfall in the Philippines on November 8, 2013. Season Two travels to the mid-Atlantic region of the United States—where communities in New Jersey and Delaware along with scientists are grappling with questions of relocation in the face of increasing flooding and sea level rise. Through stories of people making real-time decisions of whether the advantages of remaining in place outweigh the risks of repeated disaster, we consider evolving ideas of climate adaptation, home, identity and resilience.
Created and hosted by Mario Soriano with research, writing and production support for Season Two from Asela Perez-Ortiz, Hannah Riggins, Farah Arnaout and Jayme Collins and for Season One from Patrick Jaojoco and Braeden Carroll. A production of Princeton University’s Blue Lab, which is co-led by Allison Carruth and Barron Bixler. Additional support at Princeton has come from the High Meadows Environmental Institute, the Humanities Council and the Office of the Dean of Research.
