To survive in the extreme environment of the desert, Corentin and Caroline will need a shelter to protect them from the blazing sun and house their various low-tech technology and food sources. They enlist the help of specialist engineers to design a bespoke cocoon using only biomaterials

Living with Biomaterials (5/5)

Corentin and Caroline need to build themselves a special shelter for their mission using only biomaterials.

The Biosphere Experiment - Making of

Corentin and Caroline explore cutting-edge low-tech solutions to meet their electricity and heating needs. Techniques that will enable them to power their independent lives in the desert for four months... and also to keep fit.

Producing Our Own Energy (4/5)

Corentin and Caroline explore cutting-edge low-tech solutions to meet their electricity and heating needs.

In the biosphere, every waste product becomes a precious resource. Corentin and Caroline set out to find the most ingenious ways of reusing everything.

Recycling our Waste (2/5)

Perhaps the biggest challenge in the desert is the lack of water. How can Caroline and Corentin provide themselves with enough water to live in such an extreme environment? The answer lies in some ingenious low-tech.

Producing and Saving Water (3/5)

How can Caroline and Corentin obtain enough water to survive in such an extreme environment? The answer lies in some ingenious low-tech.

The biosphere experiment set out to survive in the desert for 120 days using low-tech solutions. For food they learnt how to live off a diet of mushrooms, crickets, and to grow an ancient super food, Spirulina.

Having Enough Food (1/5)

How can you feed yourself self-sufficiently in the desert? An ancient superfood could hold the answer.

Nuclear energy: a clean energy for the future or a risk for humanity? As the European Union has classed nuclear as a green energy, France is building new power plants whilst Germany is decommissioning them. An in depth look at the future of atomic energy in the coming decades.

Nuclear: a clean energy source for the future or a risk for humanity? An in depth look at the future of atomic energy.

The Future of Nuclear Energy

Making chocolate for one euro, eco-friendly jeans at rock-bottom prices, fair-trade, organic, and cheap coffee - discounters and fashion chains are suddenly offering customers the opportunity to save the world. Is it all just greenwashing and deception?

The Privilege of Sustainable Shopping

Sustainable consumption: is it all just greenwashing and deception?

The largest store of carbon besides the oceans is the soil. If only 0.4 percent more carbon could be put into the earth every year, the increase in greenhouse gas emissions would stop immediately. This is called carbon farming. But whether carbon goes into the soil or not is decided by agriculture. In this episode of Roots, science journalist Pierre Girard meets Félix Noblia in the Basque Country and Fabrice Desjours in Burgundy.Félix uses a special grazing system that actively stores carbon in the soil. Fabrice Desjours from Burgundy combines forgotten herbs, trees and plants to transform meadows into forest gardens where everything is edible.

Carbon Farming

If only 0.4 percent more carbon could be put into the earth every year, the increase in greenhouse gas emissions would stop immediately.

Biodiversity is good for the environment but also for our taste buds. In Alsace, a winegrower practices "complantation", the mixing of several grape varieties on the same plot to avoid pesticides. In southern Italy, Mario relies on the coexistence of plants and livestock to enrich the biodiversity of his fields and produce a mozzarella with a unique taste.

Resilient Biodiversity

Biodiversity is good for the environment but also for our taste buds.

In this episode, we discover with the journalist Pierre Girard how cows can make the activity of a farm more respectful of nature and how sheep can improve cereal harvests. These unusual methods could offer a solution to agriculture's carbon emissions problem.

Climate-Killer Cows

In this episode, we discover with the journalist Pierre Girard how cows can make the activity of a farm more respectful of nature.
