Journey to Planet Earth

Journey to Planet Earth

PBS presents "Journey to Planet Earth," exploring the delicate relationship between people and the natural world they inhabit. All episodes share a common thread: the necessity to achieve a balance between the needs of people and the needs of the environment. Its companion website features resources for educators, including a comprehensive learning experience on global environmental change and our health.

New episode: "State of the Ocean's Animals," premiered Wednesday, March 28, 2007, on PBS. In this tenth installment of public television's award-winning series, Academy Award® winner Matt Damon takes a hard look at why nearly half the world's marine animals may face extinction over the next twenty-five years.
