Part of the educational Miracle Planet series, which teaches kids and grown-ups, too, about earth science from a historical perspective, Miracle Planet: The Home Planet discusses the damage done by people to the life-sustaining environment. Deforestation, depletion of fossil fuels, ocean pollution, and ever-rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide are worsening problems. Hosted by journalist Bill Kurtis, the program outlines each one and tells viewers what they can do to help improve the earth's bill of health.
