Episode 6: Five Stars

An Alaska cruise is all about the scenery. And Juneau doesn't disappoint. There's a glacier in town and some of the best whale-watching in the world. But, this episode is about how Alaska can make some people squirm. Because climate change is so in-your-face here. And at some point, tourism is just going to be too much, but no one knows when exactly that's going to happen. And some people worry that we're not going to know that it's happened until it's way too late to stop it.
