The Trap: What Happened To Our Dream Of Freedom?

Series information (Source: Wikipedia)
The Trap: What Happened to Our Dream of Freedom is a BBC documentary series by English filmmaker Adam Curtis, well known for other documentaries including The Century of the Self and The Power of Nightmares. It began airing on BBC Two on 11 March 2007.

The series consists of three, one-hour programmes which explore the concept and definition of freedom, specifically "how a simplistic model of human beings as self-seeking, almost robotic, creatures led to today's idea of freedom."

The Trap: What Happened To Our Dream Of Freedom,

Episode 1 - F**k You Buddy
F**k You BuddyIn this episode, Curtis examines the rise of game theory during the Cold War and the way in which its mathematical models of human behaviour filtered into economic thought.

Episode 2 - The Lonely Robot
The Lonely RobotThe second episode reiterated many of the ideas of the first, but developed the theme that the drugs such as Prozac and lists of psychological symptoms which might indicate anxiety or depression were being used to normalise behaviour and make humans behave more predictably, like machines. This was not presented as a conspiracy theory, but as a logical (although unpredicted) outcome of market-driven self-diagnosis by checklist, discussed in the previous programme.

Episode 3 - We Will Force You To Be Free
The final programme focussed on the concepts of positive and negative liberty introduced in the 1950s by Isaiah Berlin. Curtis briefly explains how negative liberty could be defined as freedom from coercion, and positive liberty as the opportunity to strive to fulfill one’s potential.

Global Warming: What You Need To Know

Discovery Channel has formed a global alliance with the BBC and NBC News Productions to gather cutting edge research on climate change that will be revealed in Global Warming: What You Need To Know hosted by Tom Brokaw. The two-hour special moves beyond the debate to present the facts about climate change. The leading scientists working on the front lines of climate change take viewers around the world to the heart of the latest research, revealing the realities of global warming and the future of the planet. New state of the art computer models paint the picture of a globally warmed world, and viewers learn if previous information has been wrong; what is fact and what is fiction; and if global warming is really happening.

Discovery Channel visited global warming tipping points across the planet, talked to the world's leading experts, and examined the latest evidence about global warming for Global Warming: What You Need To Know. Produced by Discovery Channel, the BBC and NBC News Productions, and hosted by award-winning journalist Tom Brokaw, the two-hour special presented the facts and encouraged viewers to determine their own opinion about global warming.

The two-hour special decoded the buzzwords and armed viewers with an arsenal of clear definitions and visual depictions to explain the greenhouse effect, carbon dioxide emissions, CFCs, effects on weather and rising sea levels. CGI and cutting-edge climate computer models helped viewers see into the future at a world significantly changed by unchecked global warming.

Global Warming: What You Need To Know took viewers to global warming hot spots where the planet is most affected by climate change - into rushing subterranean rivers deep in Patagonian glaciers, into the drought-stricken Amazon, on coral reefs ravaged by rising ocean temperatures, into a massive Chinese coal mine, and many more.

The international team of experts, including NASA's top climate scientist Dr. James Hansen, and Princeton University professors Michael Oppenheimer and Stephen Pacala, discussed the current realities of global warming and predicted the future of the planet. Many of the experts addressed natural warming and cooling cycles going back 600,000 years, and discussed if the present warming trend is unnatural.

Global Warming: What You Need To Know demonstrated how much carbon dioxide the average American family produces and presented a graphical timeline of global warming throughout history. Finally, the special looked at technical solutions, both great and small, from giant gas injection rigs in the ocean, to more efficient architecture in cities, to what the average American family can do to slow global warming.

The Great Global Warming Swindle / Wygodne Kłamstwo (2007) DVDrip

A debunking of the current global warming fraternity:"Campaigners say the time for debate is over. Any criticism, no matter how scientifically rigorous, is illegitimate. Even worse, dangerous.But in this film, it will be shown that the earth's climate is always changing. That there is nothing unusual about the current temperature, and the scientific evidence does not support the notion that climate is driven by carbon dioxide (CO2), man-made or otherwise.Everywhere you are being told that man-made climate change is proved beyond doubt. But you are being told, lies."Quotes:"There is no direct evidence which links 20th century global warming to anthroprogenic [man-made] greenhouse gasses."

"We can't say that CO2 will drive climate, it certainly never did in the past." "The global warming alarm is dressed up as science. But its not science, its propaganda." "[we are being told that] If the CO2 increases in the atmosphere as a greenhouse gas, then the temperature will go up. But the ice-core records shows exactly the opposite. So the fundamental assumption, the most fundamental assumption, the assumption of the whole theory of climate change due to humans is shown to be wrong."

Massive Nature

Information:

New six part series. Imagine amidst the mayhem, you could be at the heart of the action, alongside animals who might die, so the rest may live. This spectacular new series unravels the mystery behind the world’s most dramatic wildlife events.

From the great sardine run to the mighty wildebeest migration - mobs rule. Coming up in the series are millions of African flamingos hunted down by baboons, endless swarms of tiny Texan bats who run the gauntlet of marauding snakes and hawks, and millions of wilderbeest that face the crocodile-infested Mara river in Tanzania.

Part 1 - The Deep
The greatest shoal on Earth - billions of tiny sardines - are on a collision course with thousands of dolphins, sharks, seals and gannets. Will any fish survive the attack? Will the sharks turn on the dolphins? Can animals make their own luck - when faced with mortal danger and is there anywhere to hide in the crowd?

Part 2 - The Trap
One million flamingos - the world’s greatest flock, come face to face with baboons and fish eagles on East Africa’s Lake Bogoria.
This is the only place where these predators kill flamingos - so why do the flamingos come here? Can the power of the flock overcome this threat? It seems that individual survival at the Lake is not simply a matter of luck - Massive Nature uncovers the secrets of a flamingos success.

Part 3 - The crossing
Is about the wildebeest that cross the Mara River in search of the best grazing whilst the area is crowded with opportunistic predators and scavengers.

Part 4 - The falls
Follows the challanges faced by 300 million salmon migrating up rivers across Alaska to spawn in their own birth place all while risking ambush by grizzly bears and bald eagles along the way.

Part 5 - The Edge
When thousands of young Adelie penguins leave the colony to start their adult life at sea, they face a terrifying ordeal. A huge predatory leopard seal is waiting for them just offshore. But which penguin chicks will get through? Is survival down to luck, or can past actions influence a penguin’s fate?

Part 6 -The Exodus
40 million bats exiting a single Texan cave run a gauntlet of snakes and hawks. Half the bats are babies on their maiden flight, so how will they survive ?
This is the biggest flock of bats on the planet, but strength in numbers is not their only defence. Massive Nature investigates how where and when you fly in the flock can make the ultimate difference between life and death.
