NewsDepth 2020-2021 | Episode 2


In this week's episode, we head West where wildfires are burning through a massive amount of the country. Meet firefighters on the front line and farmers protecting their crops from dramatic changes in weather.

Plus, we take a spin around the globe to see how other schools are taking on the pandemic. In Spain, they are building larger classrooms, while back in the U.S. community centers are helping students with homework.

Finally, we plunge into some splashy stories. Visit a Vermont shipwreck, take photos with a professional underwater photographer, and scuba dive with a 100-year-old!


Santa Ana wind (noun) strong dry winds that blow from inland deserts across southern California.

peninsula (noun) a landform that is surrounded by water on multiple sides while still being connected to a mainland.

maritime (adjective) related to the sea, especially when it comes to military action.

composition (noun) the arrangement of elements in a piece of art.


 

In this week's episode we meet a 100-year-old setting a record as a scuba diver. So we want to know: what would you like to be doing when you are 100 years old?
