Made in consultation with the IPCC and world leading climate scientists, this brand new, groundbreaking documentary explains the big headlines that will be addressed by the Fifth Assessment Report in 2015, and how we may be in the middle of the most crucial moment of Earth's history. It decodes thousands of pages of scientific data into digestible, easy to understand science, punctuated in places by clever, creative CGI. Areas of concern covered include freshwater crises, ecosystem change and tipping points, biodiversity threats, ocean acidification, sea level rise, Arctic permafrost thaw, food security, human health threats, and renewable energy opportunities. Blue-chip, panoramic, and visually rich, this one hour special moves across the globe from the Himalayas to Antarctica, the Amazon Rainforest to the High Arctic.
