Episode 21
Listen to a podcast that uncovers the different layers of the Estonian coastline from a human geography perspective. Estonian seascapes range from beaches to waterfalls and have historically supported people in a range of industries from tourism to fishing to the production of cosmetics. Seascapes also ignite energy debates about oil shale and wind farms against the backdrop of being Russia's neighbour today.
Anu Printsmann from Tallinn University talks to editor of nordics.info, Nicola Witcombe.
