This show seems really interesting, and timely. I hope we get to see it in the U.S., or at least I can order it from Netflix.
“Burn Up” is a high stakes conspiracy thriller set against the backdrop of the oil industry. It is a story that mirrors the world in which we live and where we struggle to be both economically successful and globally responsible.”
“Burn Up” is a Trojan horse of a story. It delivers an eviscerating tale where the stakes are terrifyingly real and the climate issues, the intrigue, the global politics, the back room dealings and the espionage are happening today in our world.”

Toxic: Garbage Island Trailer
Some really depressing but vital video documenting the impacts of the Great Pacific Gyre:
“Watch a team from VBS.TV search for the alleged toxic “Garbage Island”, reported to be bigger than Texas, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. What they find is more disturbing than they even imagined. Rated R for language and for the sheer sadness of what we have done to our oceans.”
This is a 12-part short video series.
