PRODUCT SUMMARY
This National Geographic program takes viewers on an exploration of the environment. Around the globe, scientists are racing to solve a series of mysteries. Unsettling transformations are sweeping across the planet, and clue by clue, investigators are discovering ways that seemingly disparate events are connected. These events include such oddities as crumbling houses in New Orleans that appear to be linked to voracious creatures from southern China and an asthma epidemic in the Caribbean that appears to be linked to dust storms in Africa. Scientists suspects that this generation has entered a time of global change swifter than any other has ever witnessed. Host Edward Norton takes viewers on a journey to discover where humankind is headed and what can be done to alter this course of events.
