About
Every choice we make shapes the fate of humankind. Green Century is a thought-provoking, four-part documentary that ponders the fate of our civilization from an ecological perspective. The show looks at our accomplishments as a species and the long-term viability of our civilization, including the potential for colonization of neighboring planets and star systems. Green Century also considers the challenges that may prevent us from fulfilling our potential as a race including the Earths inability to meet the basic needs of a human population that will grow to nearly 9 billion by mid-century.
