CNN and Animal Planet reporters conduct an in-depth investigation into the current state of our planet, with a focus on four major issues: global warming, overpopulation, deforestation, and species extinction. Leveraging their research experience and resources, they traverse a variety of locations-from Brazil and Madagascar to Southeast Asia, Alaska, and Yellowstone National Park-documenting the impacts of population growth, rising temperatures, poaching, illegal animal trade, and other global environmental concerns. The specific areas of conflict they explore include the Niger Delta (oil extraction) and La Oroya in Peru (industrial pollution).
