The Episodes

This synopsis below is based on the four longer-format episodes preferred by many terrestrial broadcasters, though we initially intended (and can still package) 7-8 shorter half-hour episodes. 

Ep 1.  The only way to predict the future is to create it
- the why, and 'the sprint,' for methane and other super-pollutants
  • Climate restoration: the why (we don't have a choice)

  • Why emission reductions aren't enough

  • The last million years: how nature balanced CO2 and nature

  • Methane hotspots: thawing permafrost, and other stories 

  • Four viable paths to climate restoration

  • Imagining the future

Ep 4.  This changes everything
- social change: everything, everywhere, all at once
  • It was never just about the science

  • From climate anxiety to empowerment: the restoration civilization

  • It's one thing to return the climate to how it was 200+ years ago…

  • How do we avoid repeating our mistakes and injustices?

  • Understanding the realities of 'overshoot’

  • What could 'positive degrowth' look like?

  • Imagining a very different future
