Pierre
Trash Beach
From toys, to shampoo bottles, to bread wrappers, to car parts, to our shoes and clothes, plastic is everywhere!
But what happens to all that plastic when we are done with it? Where does it end up? People have said that 90% of plastic ever produced is still around today. See the unexpected place Pierre has found our plastic leftovers.
Across the Pacific Ocean and the other great oceans of the world, we find huge piles of garbage collecting along the shorelines - and at the centers of huge ocean currents as they circulate.
Many animals are killed by this trash, this garbage of rope and nets and bottles and shoes - all the stuff we forget, that washes out to sea.
Pierrre and Krista find these on the South Point of the Big Island of Hawai'i.

Good Morning Antarctica, 2075 AD
It's the year 2075 and Pierre and Mother Earth have found that the ice has melted off of Antartica. Where did it all go? Why did we let the world warm up? Pierre takes a silly look at global warming.
In the year 2075 AD, Pierre and Mother Earth visit New-New York, located on a mountain top in Antarctica, one of the few dry places left on Earth since all the glaciers melted and flooded the world.
