    Exclamation Strange days on planet earth

    Anyone watching this series on Nat Geo?
    The catastrophic effects of man's influence on the planet are astounding.
    Their's a small army of people out there trying to make the world listen.
    Will they succeed?

    the only way the planet will recover is when humans are gone.

    I completely agree. humans are a major problem. However I beleive that we have to foresight and technology to be the solution.
    I have the planet earth series on disk. If you like that then watching ' the 11th hour' and ' the age of stupid' will appeal to you highly. I have both on DVD if you want to borrow. I actually have 2 copies of the 11th hour! Its that good! I m can drop the dvd off to you if you want.
    I also have blue planet! which is a look at the world oceans and man that made me feel so small.

    Thanks for the offer Cinders but I have seen those.
    Bill, I'm inclined to agree...it may happen sooner than later.
    The current series shows how despite out oh so superior technology we seem to forget the simple forward planning...

    I am inclined to depair!

    maybe just maybe humans have had there turn and it's time to go. i agree that it could be saved but the big 3rd world countries don't really want to know. so i can't see it being saved even at the 11th hour

    "Human Civilisation" is not even a blink in the life of the planet. She'll get over us once we've killed ourselves off by messing in our own nest.
