Countdown to Copenhagen

In December 2009, leaders from across the world will meet in Copenhagen to establish a new climate protocol to succeed the famous Kyoto protocol (which the U.S. never signed). The outcome of this meeting will likely define the international stance on climate change and global warming for the coming decades. Not to get ahead of ourselves this year . . . but we at TERRA think this is the most important approaching environmental milestone of 2009 and the foundation for earnest change is already beginning. So, with this global spirit in mind, let's kick off the new year with some great environmental films and a newly-announced collaboration with the United Nations to continue bringing you fresh content from around the world. Don't change that dial! We've got an amazing slate of films for you in 2009 . . . a year that will be remembered for new beginnings based on sustainable values.

Screenshot 1:TERRA 425: The Bison Haze: A Yellowstone Controversy PART ONE

Yellowstone's population of bison are free-ranging, and so can leave the friendly confines of the park at any time. Animal activists believe that the bison, perhaps THE symbol of the plains, should be able to roam free as in centuries past. Ranchers in the area fear that their cattle may be infected by the brucellosis that bison can carry. As a result, a battle rages between the laissez-faire and regulatory camps, with the bison caught in the middle. This episode of TERRA takes an unblinking, Wiseman-inspired look at "The Bison Haze: A Yellowstone Controversy".
