The Grand Canyon Adventure IMAX film stars environmental advocate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and preeminent anthropologist and National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Wade Davis on a river-rafting expedition down the Colorado River. The action-packed rafting trip is intended to raises awareness of one of the most pressing environmental stories of our time-the world's looming freshwater crisis. More than one billion people-one in five on the planet-lack access to safe drinking water. By 2050, 40 percent of the world will suffer water shortages according to the United Nations.
