Tar Sands on "How the Earth Made Us"

23rd February - 09:55pm - 0 comments

The vast area of devastation caused by the Tar Sands mining in Alberta, Canada was shown to stunning effect on the program "How the Earth Made Us" shown tonight on BBC2. The programme entitled "Human Planet" highlighted the quest for oil, coal & the carbon reserves on our planet in all it's fascinating forms. The second half of the programme focused on the terrible impact that man's relentless pursuit is having on the earth. See the program in full on BBC2 iPlayer:
