In a world where convenience rules what lands on our plates, this eye-opening investigation pulls back the curtain on the true cost of our modern food economy. What once promised abundance and innovation has morphed into a system where a few powerful corporations hold the reins, shaping government policy, squeezing farmers, and prioritizing profit over people. The result is a food supply that is astonishingly efficient yet painfully vulnerable — and deeply tied to a global health crisis fueled by ultra-processed products. With incisive reporting and compelling voices from leading food system critics, this urgent follow-up dives deeper into how profit-driven consolidation has rewired what we eat and how it’s made. Through revealing stories from workers, families, and the experts who dared to investigate, it challenges everything we think we know about food, health, and corporate control — and urges viewers to rethink the cost of what ends up on our tables.

This visionary documentary series asks a bold and urgent question: how can the power of nature itself help repair the damage we have done to the planet and even reverse climate change? Drawing on cutting-edge science and filmed across some of Earth’s most vital ecosystems, the series reveals nature not as a victim, but as one of our strongest allies. It offers a hopeful glimpse into a future where working with natural systems could restore balance, resilience, and abundance on a global scale. In the first two episodes, the focus turns to oceans and grasslands, two of the planet’s most powerful yet underestimated climate regulators. Viewers discover how marine life plays a crucial role in removing carbon from the atmosphere, and how vast grasslands, sustained by thriving animal populations, lock away carbon beneath the surface. Through new research and striking imagery, the episodes show why protecting and restoring these ecosystems is essential to our future—and how human action can help them recover.
Inspired by his late mentor, Will Smith embarks on a 100-day, pole-to-pole odyssey that pushes him far beyond his comfort zone.

The journey blends adrenaline and curiosity, revealing how extreme environments shape life—and how facing the planet’s edges can reshape us, too. In the first two episodes, the adventure begins with sweeping ambition and immediate immersion. Smith sets out on the global route with National Geographic, then plunges into the Amazon rainforest, tracking dangerous wildlife and learning from those who know the jungle best. It’s a vivid opening that sets the tone for a quest defined by discovery, risk, and awe at the natural world.
This eye-opening documentary puts a simple but provocative question to the test: how much does what we eat really shape our bodies and our health? In a tightly controlled scientific experiment, identical twins adopt radically different diets and lifestyles for eight weeks, allowing researchers to isolate the impact of food itself. By combining cutting-edge science with deeply personal experiences, the series reveals how diet influences everything from energy and metabolism to long-term wellbeing. In the first two episodes, the experiment begins as each pair of twins commits to either a plant-based or an omnivorous diet. As they adjust to unfamiliar routines, some changes feel surprisingly easy while others expose cravings, doubts, and unexpected challenges. Along the way, questionable dietary advice is put under the microscope, and a celebrity chef rethinks his approach to cooking, highlighting how habits, culture, and taste all collide when science meets the dinner table.
