| You def have to check it out if you get a chance. The episodes themselves dont go much into the destruction of the Earth but the DVD extras have a whole disc dedicated to discussions on both sides of the argument ( people saying we are doing enough, and people saying its already too late, and a few other ideas inbetween) On another note, I really feel that what is happening to the Earth was bound to happen anyway, the history of the planet proves that it has always changed. I just feel we are speeding it up to a point that will lead to some serious trouble (well after we are all gone at least, not that it is an OK excuse to use). I just feel bad when I watch the dvd and see animals living on the polar Ice caps trying to survive in their already new environments. It is pretty sad.
