Lake Victoria is Africa’s largest lake, but an ecological disaster threatens the lake’s future and the 35 million people who depend on its bounty. The lake has seen one of the largest losses of biodiversity ever recorded. 300 native fish species have been wiped out by invasive species and overfishing. An ambitious three country-wide team reports on Lake Victoria’s environmental crisis. The second part of our doucmentary documents unsound environmental practices along the Great Lake’s shoreline: the replacement of indigenous rainforests with palm oil plantations, artisanal gold mines that leach mercury, uncontrolled use of pesticides and sewage pollution. They all contribute to oxygen depletion and the spread of water hyacinth chocking the lake. The film also looks at possible solutions to save Africa’s greatest lake.
