Kuidas elatakse ühes maailma mõjuvõimsamas riigis päriselt ja miks vaatavad ameeriklased eestlasi kui metshaldjaid?

234. osa: Merineitsiks riietuv eestlanna: olen trikoo vahel veest nii palju prügi välja toonud
Tänase saate külaline Merle Liivand on meedias silma paistnud millegi väga omapärasega – nimelt on ta riietunud Merineitsiks ning püstitanud sedaviisi ujudes maailmarekordi. Kõigel sellel on aga Merle sõnul sügavam tähendus – tema eesmärk on õpetada inimesi ookeani armastama ja võidelda reostuse vastu. Merle on elanud juba aastaid Ameerika Ühendriikides Floridas ning tõdeb, et sealmail on kohutavalt suured keskkonnaprobleemid. Kõike ostetakse plastikus ning lõpuks jõuab see vette – muide koroonaajastul on probleem veelgi suurenenud. Merle tõdeb, et USA-l oleks Eestilt selles valdkonnas väga palju õppida. Vestlust juhib Liina Metsküla.
