With their lunar landscapes, fiery furnaces and ash deserts, volcanoes are symbols of destruction and desolation. Yet millions of men and women now live near these time bombs. Because beneath volcanoes lie some of earth's most amazing treasures. Japanese fertile lands with unparalleled yields, water reservoirs irrigating the whole of Sicily, deposits of precious materials such as the sulfur of an Indonesian volcano or clean and sustainable sources of energy in New Zealand: all attest of the immeasurable wealth hidden beneath the brimstone giants. However, the treasures of volcanoes are hard-earned; they are only awarded to the bravest and most steadfast of peoples.

Volcanoes are a force of Nature; their unrelenting power has been unleashed for millions of years on Earth, threatening to sweep us away in a fiery inferno at any moment. Faced with this peril, a group of passionate men and women have embarked on a mission: to understand and protect. They are the guardian angels of densely populated areas such as Naples, they are isolated volcano explorers such as in the Rift Valley in Tanzania, they are perched at more than 6000m on the Andean highlands or immersed in the mysterious Auvergne subsoil: volcanologists from all over the world are ready to face any challenge to quench their thirst for knowledge. They have made volcanoes their open-air laboratories. Without respite, they roam the world's volcanoes, guided by their fascination and sense of duty.

In the 1960s, the Nashua River in New Hampshire and central Massachusetts was one of the 10 most polluted in the country, clogged with multicolored, toxic sludge from nearby paper mills. Around that time, housewife Marion Stoddart moved to the area with her family, so close to the river they could smell its noxious fumes. At a low point in her life, she decided to fight her own emptiness by taking on the biggest challenge she could find - cleaning up the Nashua. Her dramatic success in mobilizing the community showed people that change was possible, even though they'd lost hope. Marion's efforts helped get the Massachusetts Clean Rivers Act passed so that companies weren't allowed to pollute rivers like the Nashua anymore. In the process, she won a United Nations award, was profiled in National Geographic, and had a widely-read children's book written about her. Her secret? An ordinary person can do extraordinary things when they refuse to give up. Thanks to Marion, children in the Nashua River Watershed and around the world have come to understand that one person can make a difference, even when the odds seem impossible.

Operation Wallacea is a UK based group of scientists who have established a conservation strategy with outposts in 6 areas of the world which they consider to be 'biodiversity hotspots'. A rainforest area of the Island of Buton, off the south coast of Sulawesi in Indonesia is the locus of this video. Operation Wallacea's scientists have been active here for a number of years, operating by a 4 stage process in which they survey the level of biological diversity, plan ways to maintain it, help the local people develop strategies to maintain income without harming the ecology and work to obtain grants to help development in the local area.
