Kiribati

For thousands of years, the island peoples of the Pacific were masters of the ocean, braving angry seas in handmade canoes and navigating by the stars. But, these traditional ways are being lost to modernity. Adventurer Ellis Emmett helps get a traditional canoe back on the water, and sees first-hand how rising seas are changing life in the island chains of Kiribati.
