Earth From Space
Ep. 4/4 -
In the last episode - at a time when the Earth’s surface is changing faster than ever in human history - cameras show cities grow, forests disappear and glaciers melt. But these images can also inspire us to look after our fragile home.
In the ever-growing grey of cities, one man is feeding thousands of parakeets. In Sumatra a female orangutan and her daughter face life in a forest under threat, while in Tanzania local people use satellites to re-plant a forest, securing the future for a family of chimpanzees.
