In Climate Change: Permafrost and Release of Methane and Carbon, discover the science behind permafrost and its crucial role in the global climate system. Permafrost, the frozen ground found primarily in the Arctic, has acted as a natural storage system for carbon and methane gases for thousands of years. These gases, which were once trapped beneath the surface, are released as the permafrost thaws due to rising global temperatures. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Climate Change — The Facts, a documentary that delves into the science of climate change and its far-reaching consequences.
In Understanding Carbon Footprints, host Harith Iskander explores how foods contribute to global warming. Each stage of food production — from farming to packaging and delivery — uses energy and releases gases that affect the climate. Learn how different types of food, such as meats and vegetables, have different impacts on the environment and discover ways we can make more eco-friendly choices. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Got Science?, a science magazine series that explores and explains science in everyday life.
In Shifting Toward Greener Renewable Energy, scientists discuss the development of renewable energy sources like solar and wind power to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. They explore advancements in the efficiency of capturing, storing, and utilizing energy, and the need for technological innovation to overcome challenges related to energy production and sustainability. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Climate Change — The Facts, a documentary that delves into the science of climate change and its far-reaching consequences.
In Climate Change in Politics and Injustices, learn about the political, technological, and financial barriers to effectively addressing climate change. For decades, scientists have been aware of the dangers posed by greenhouse gases, but the challenge of tackling climate change has been compounded by misinformation, political obstacles, and a lack of global action. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Climate Change — The Facts, a documentary that delves into the science of climate change and its far-reaching consequences.
In Coral Bleaching, witness the effects of global warming on coral ecosystems. The world’s oceans are warming due to climate change, which negatively affects coral reefs, home to about a quarter of all ocean life. Coral is highly sensitive to temperature changes, and as ocean temperatures rise, coral bleaching becomes more extreme. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Climate Change — The Facts, a documentary that delves into the science of climate change and its far-reaching consequences.
In Making Smart Choices for Our Planet, narrator Sir David Attenborough explains how important it is to understand and take care of the natural world as we rely on it for things like air, food, and even our happiness. As the world’s population grows, we are using more and more resources like water and food sources, which could lead to problems in the future. But there’s hope! If we use science and technology wisely, we can make better choices and live more sustainably, helping the Earth for future generations. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Horizon: How Many People Can Live on Planet Earth?, which explores the challenges of supporting a growing global population.
In Climate Change and the Production of Rice, see how increasing global temperatures have contributed to climate change, which has been detrimental to agriculture, particularly rice production. Billions of people rely on rice as a primary food and source of income, but it is increasingly threatened by crop failure, unpredictable weather events, and a decrease in its nutritional value. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Climate Change — The Facts, a documentary that delves into the science of climate change and its far-reaching consequences.
Discover the beauty of Canada! Take your class on a thrilling journey through Canada’s waterfalls, forests, and frozen wilds with this BBC playlist. From beluga whales to meteor strikes and snowy adventures, these clips bring science and geography to life — no parka required!
In Vanishing Places, host Harith Iskander explains how physical features around the world, such as the melting snow on Mount Kilimanjaro, the sinking of Mexico City, and the potential disappearance of the Dead Sea, are changing over time. Learn how natural and human-made factors contribute to the transformation of the Earth's physical landscape.
