Hosted by twice Oscar nominated actor and activist Woody Harrelson, Ethos lifts the lid on a Pandora's Box of systemic issues that guarantee failure in every aspect of our lives, from the environment to our democracy and our own personal liberty. From conflicts of interest in politics to unregulated corporate power, to a military industrial complex that just about owns our government. We cannot change our system until we know how it works and this film, with interviews from some of today's leading thinkers, will show you how to make meaningful and sustainable change. We can live in peace and justice in a clean environment and Ethos will show you how.

EVOLUTION EARTH embarks on a global expedition to reveal the animals keeping pace with a planet changing at superspeed. Heading out across the globe to distant wilds and modern urban environments, five episodes track how animals are moving, using ingenuity to adapt their behaviour, and even evolving in unexpected ways. Episode 2: Islands are like miniature simplified Earths, where evolution is playing out at superspeed right before our eyes. We journey from the Galapagos to the edge of Antarctica to seek out animals responding in extraordinary ways to our changing planet. We find sealions hunting in a completely new way, lizards changing shape because of hurricanes, and monkeys eating charcoal in response to deforestation.

EVOLUTION EARTH embarks on a global expedition to reveal the animals keeping pace with a planet changing at superspeed. Heading out across the globe to distant wilds and modern urban environments, five episodes track how animals are moving, using ingenuity to adapt their behaviour, and even evolving in unexpected ways. Episode 3: In the hottest extremes, species are going to extraordinary lengths to survive. From the Sahara Desert to the Australian outback, animals are providing new clues about our changing planet and what it will mean for the future of our heating world. Chimps are living in caves, camels are drinking salt water and zebra finches are singing to their eggs to make their chicks smaller.

The “Finite Water” documentary discusses global water concerns as seen through the eyes of an average person. After attending the Global Water Summit in Paris as an academic participant, it inspired me to make a documentary without having any experience in filmmaking. The film opens the discussion about water conservation, harvesting methods and adaptation to a new reality, where one could comprehend and develop awareness about global water concerns. Several interviews and discussions are conducted concerning water management and our future’s outlook. Our goal is to instill the idea that adaptation will take place in many places and developing new methods begins with observing what is happening around us. It all begins with one’s own thought process, fresh thinking and exponential changes. We hope to draw attention to how water concerns will affect us and open the discussion about future adaptation to such a significant change.
The effects of water shortages are being seen all over the world in our lifetime. Adapting to a changed reality takes precedent in a world of over 7 billion people. Hear what others have to say about water conservation, technological trends and sharing ideas with the next generation. Is it possible to ensure a future with clean water for everyone?
