| Earthquake: This programme visits parts of the world that are susceptible to catastrophic earthquakes including Japan, which suffered a quake rating 6.8 on the Richter scale in 2004. Vulnerable countries are working towards developing reliable early warning systems so that they can better prepare their people and cities when quakes occur. Island: This programme looks at some of the most isolated and beautiful islands on the planet, including Easter Island with its stone sculptures, the treeless expanses of the Shetland Islands and the Pharaoh Islands, initially settled by Irish monks and Vikings. Lake: This programme looks at how Russia makes use of its huge lakes during the winter when they freeze over and the effect on global warming when the lakes starts to thaw, releasing methane and carbon dioxide as they do so.
