  • Sun
  • Tropic
  • Forest

Sun: Our sun is a yellow dwarf star that fuses hydrogen atoms into helium, releasing huge amounts of energy in the process. Scientists are now using technological advancements such as the Solar & Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) to better understand the sun.

Tropic: The tropics of the world feature the broadest range of plant and animal life. This episode looks at various tropical rainforests, reefs and deserts around the world.

Forest: Forests around the world are dwindling under the demands of increasing population and industry. Forests are important to the planet’s biosphere as they retain water, preserve soil quality and provide habitat for many species of plant and animal life. We look at initiatives being embraced around the world to protect our rapidly reducing forests.

(Geography) On thin ice

The Arctic sea ice is melting. The global climate is growing steadily warmer and in the Arctic this process is proceeding twice as fast as in the rest of the world. At the current rate climatologists expect the Arctic to be completely ice-free as early as 2050. This DVD shows the importance of the ice to the animals who live there especially the seal, which relies on it to give birth and to rest, and the polar bear which roams the ice searching for seals.
