Offshore wind and ocean energy are key for Europe to reach its climate targets and reduce energy imports.But how will it work? And what are the consequences?

In this episode, we discuss these questions with two experts in the field - Britta Schaffmeister, CEO of the Dutch Marine Energy Centre, and WWF European ocean policy officer Helena Rodrigues.

And at the end of the episode, Brazilian big wave surfer Maya Gabeira will tell a touching tale about one of our planet's most fascinating species.
