In the spring of 1960, a village in the western Arctic was chosen as the site of a huge nuclear experiment. Five atomic bombs would be used to dig an instant harbour nearby. Over the next 30 years, the Americans and the Russians set off 150 atomic blasts, developing what they called peaceful nuclear explosions.

A few decades ago, you'd have been hard pressed to find many survivors of transplant surgery. Today, we have come to expect that such surgery will work. Surgeon Roy Calne is one of the pioneers who made transplant surgery a practical medical tool. He's also a painter whose works capture subjects as diverse as a tiger in the jungle and the history of these startling medical advances. When he began as a surgeon, almost all these procedures failed because of the body's refusal to accept the new organ.

Amanda's family is a carrier for a rare early-onset gene that triggers Alzheimer. It's a disease we normally associate with the elderly. In Alzheimer's, specific proteins bind to form plaque in the brain, resulting in memory loss and physical impairment. Eventually patients die from complications. A few years ago a research team at the University of Toronto isolated the specific gene associated with early-onset Alzheimer. As well, new Alzheimer drugs like Araset, trial vaccines, and improved diagnostic techniques offer new hope for patients. However, doctors are still many years away from finding a cure. Tonight we follow Amanda's powerful story as she struggles to come to terms with her family's deadly inheritance.

Its icy power dominates the lives of the hardy animals that dare to call it home, making living there one of nature's greatest challenges.

The Salmon Forest transports viewers to the breathtaking remote temperate rainforests, stretching 400 km along the B.C. coast from Vancouver Island to Alaska. The millions of spawning salmon support dense concentrations of forest life - among them grizzly bears, black bears, bald eagles, seals, otters, gulls and countless invertebrates. Much about life here still remains hidden and unknown, but THE NATURE OF THINGS joins two University of Victoria scientists to reveal the secrets of this amazing ecosystem.

On both coasts of North America, salmon have long symbolized speed, power and abundance in nature. But today salmon populations are plummeting for a variety of reasons. Aquaculture, or fish farming, seems to offer a way to satisfy the exploding demand for fresh fish. But it's controversial. David Suzuki is among the critics who question the current practices of this young industry. To explore this important issue in Europe and North America we joined forces with the BBC.

On the northeast coast of Papua New Guinea, lives a tribe of 2,000 people, the Maisin. Unlike the more remote tribes, the Maisin were among the first to have contact with Europeans. It was Anglican missionaries who brought them the English language, Christianity, and a desire to see the world outside their villages. But recently something has changed their mind. The post-war generation that moved away to towns and cities as far away as Australia are deciding to come home, to live in a community without any of the modern conveniences... no running water, no electricity, no roads.

Albertans have traditionally been proud of their mighty petroleum industry. But lately, they have begun to question how that industry works. Nowhere is this shift more apparent than along the Clearwater River in Central Alberta, near Rocky Mountain House. There, residents are opposing Shell Canada's plans to drill a sour gas well in their area. The sour gas from the well could generate $10,000 a day in gross revenue, to meet today's high energy demands.

The story of the Aral Sea is a modern fable that contains a dire warning about our future. Less than 40 years ago this was a sea full of fish, the air was clear, the soil rich and the climate temperate. But today the Aral Sea is one of the most tragic environmental catastrophies of the last century. The Aral Sea is dying the death of a thousand irrigation canals, silently evaporating in the desert sun. The people call the dust blowing off the former seabed the dry tears of the Aral. The new Aralkum, the new desert, covers 38,000 square kilometres. This is the legacy of the will of distant leaders to turn Central Asia into the greatest cotton producing region in the world.
