CBC The Nature of Things Vol 1 Visions of the Future 4 of 5 – Build Green (2009)

The Nature of Things with David Suzuki, one of the most popular and intriguing Canadian television shows of all time, released to DVD on April 21, 2009.

These outstanding documentaries focus on what is being done – and what we can do – to change the way we live and the way we think about the future of our world.  You’ll learn about solutions aimed at reducing our impact on the environment, helping to create a sustainable future.

Timed to coincide with Earth Day, the first installment of the Nature of Things DVDs will lead the way for future collections to include themes of Food Production, The Senses, Life Science and Around the World.

Since 1960, The Nature of Things has informed the Canadian public on the issues, achievements, wonders and dangers of our changing world.

And from the outset, the series has explored the growing threats to the health and well being of our bodies, society and the planet, and has set out not just to report on what’s wrong, but to find solutions.

The 2-disc set includes:

1.  The Suzuki Diaries
2.  Supercar: Building the Car of the Future
3.  Living City: A Critical Guide
4.  Build Green
5.  Earth Energy

Build Green:

Throughout the BUILD GREEN episode, The Nature of Things highlights the success stories of forward-thinking architects, builders and owners who are creating green residential buildings today, all across the country. It is not easy, and there are still hurdles to be overcome, but it is imperative that we change the way we build and live in our homes. BUILD GREEN is a great opportunity to show Canadians just how to go about building green – one house at a time.
