    Content: Croatia is Border Land. The country lays on the geographic margin between central Europe and the Balkans, between the Adriatic and the Continent. Its very shape speaks of the divide. There is nothing compact, square or secure. Instead it curves around Bosnia and Herzegovina in a narrow arc, like a crescent moon or a boomerang. At no point is Croatia more than a few hundred miles wide; in most places it is much less. Our goal was to kayak its length, through the 1,246 islands lying like marbles atop what astronauts claim is the bluest sea on the planet, the Adriatic.

    Content: Bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and stretching 40 miles into the jungled interior, we kayaked and portaged more than 200 miles around the park's perimeter, seeing this wild country from a new and different perspective. Along the way we encountered river-swimming elephants, manatees, tarpon, surfing hippos, gorillas and more. By trip's end it was hard to decide which were the most beautiful, and the most difficult, parts of the expedition, but it was eye opening, for us all.

    Content: This National Geographic-sponsored exploration is a one-of-a-kind look at Antarctica from a unique perspective - sea level. Impacted by climate change - temperatures have warmed along the Peninsula faster than anywhere on the planet during the past 50 years - this part of Antarctica is also experiencing a boom in tourism and nations fighting over who owns what as its ice slowly disappears.

    Content: We went to South America's Altiplano, the mountainous desert region crossing the borders of Chile, Argentina and Bolivia, looking for water in the driest place on earth. We pulled kayaks behind, which sounds either Quixotic or foolhardy. During six weeks we traveled from sea level to 20,000 feet and ultimately found more than just signs of water. After all, man has scratched out a living here for more than 10,000 years, longer than anywhere else in the Western Hemisphere, suggesting there must be water out there somewhere. Starting on the ocean at Antofagasta, Chile, we pulled and paddled our kayaks across northern Chile and into Argentina. Part 2 of our Altiplano adventure begins on the largest lake in northern Argentina - Lago Vilama - which surprised us by being just a few inches deep.

    Content: A three-week long journey -- from California, through British Columbia and Alaska -- delivered us to one of the loneliest and least known spots on Earth (halfway between Russia and Alaska), where the Pacific Ocean and the Bering Sea collide at what the Aleuts called 'the birthplace of the winds.'

    Content: Ten years ago Hurricane Katrina devastated the coast of Louisiana. Five years later the Deepwater Horizon exploded and spilled more than 200 million gallons of oil into the Gulf of Mexico, the worst ecologic disaster in North American history. Amazingly those aren't the worst things facing Louisiana's coastline today. It is that the state is fast disappearing. When on Earth Day 2010 BP's Deepwater Horizon exploded and sank many in Louisiana predicted it would change the state's coastline forever, both its economy and its people. How has the coast changed in the past five years?

    Content: In 1835, Charles Darwin first visited the island archipelago of the Galapagos, home to the most perfectly preserved biodiversity on the planet. It became famous as the inspiration for his theory of evolution. If Darwin were to return today, he would find that the Galapagos have become a major tourist mecca with the resulting human impact -- one aspect of evolution he may not have anticipated. Filmmaker Jon Bowermaster explores the major threats to the Galapagos' unique biodiversity, including expanding tourism, invasive species, and illegal fishing, which is decimating the marine preserve. About 200,000 visitors a year now bring in over $500 million annually. A province of Ecuador, the islands also house over 40,000 permanent residents. Too many people are bringing too many of their goods and species from the outside world, threatening the future of this one-of-a-kind place. As human expansion continues, the Galapagos is at risk of losing its most precious natural resource - the most unique collection of endemic species anywhere in the world. Bowermaster provides a first-hand look at human impact in the Galapagos and talks with a variety of people who are struggling to balance their economic interests with the need to preserve this unique environment -- fishermen, tourism operators, conservationists and local residents. The future of the Galapagos is seen by many as a kind of barometer for the world. Will they inspire a new way of thinking about preserving biodiversity, as they inspired Darwin's theory of evolution?

    Content: As a candidate, Joe Biden called climate change an "existential threat" and promised to make fixing the problem part and parcel of every legislative action undertaken during his Administration. Truth is, that while the Biden team got off to a good start - shutting down the XL Pipeline and rejoining the Paris Agreement on his first day in office - that commitment has wavered ever since, as related environmental ills, from flooding to fires, extraordinary heat waves to droughts, continue to mount. Squeezed by the war in Ukraine and calls to ramp up oil and gas production and export and one loan recalcitrant fossil fuel millionaire Senator, addressing the problem has not been easy. But there are things President Biden could do immediately that would make a difference. We traveled across the country to visit with frontline activists in New Jersey, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Virginia, Louisiana, Texas, Iowa and California to bring back stories to share with President Biden, to demand that he do better. The most worrying concerns were found in Cancer Alley and various proposed LNG export sites. The film, the fourth in our "Dear" series ("Dear Governor Cuomo," "Dear President Obama" and "Dear Governor Brown") will remind you that now is not the time to give up, but to stand up and be heard. Sponsored by Food & Water Watch, People Versus Fossil Fuels, Center for Biological Diversity and the Indigenous Environmental Network.
