Documenting the devastating effects of global warming, Warm Waters is a multi-year documentary across the Pacific and Arctic Oceans, from northern Alaska to the remote outposts of New Zealand.

The journey started in 2013 in Papua New Guinea, where Vlad Sokhin recorded illegal logging and deforestation. In 2014 he covered rising sea levels, coastal erosion and the effects of El Niño in Papua New Guinea, Kiribati, Nauru, the Marshall Islands and Niue; in 2015, 2016 and 2018 he covered the aftermath of tropical cyclones across Pacific island nations and went deeper into the struggles of the affected communities, their resilience and their adaptation; in 2019 he documented severe drought in Timor-Leste. The work also looks at climate migrants and their resettlement, melting permafrost, coral bleaching and the need for renewable energy.
