The series covers a wide range of issues - evidence for pollution as the cause of falling sperm counts; ecological impact of Nato bombing on Yugoslavia; conflict over rainwater between Isrealis and Palestinians; preservation of the grasslands and way of life of Mongolia's nomads; the international toxic dumping trade, etc. One programme a month will be a global edition focusing on sustainable development solutions that work. Each installment is accompanied by web-site briefings, video-streaming and broadcast audio.

Environment, health and nutrition, economic development, rights, political development.

The series will be launched with an easy to use on-line footage database. Producers and environment and development groups needing sequences on anything from grizzly bears to smokestacks will find them without the prohibitively expensive charges of commercial archives.
