    ALBERTA'S OIL SANDS

    Discover the real truth about the biggest oil deposits in the world and the stunning environmental impact of oil exploration in the spectacular scenery of Alberta's oil country.

    Concerns about the future supply of conventional oil have attracted new attention to the potential yield from "oil sands." Walking on oil - Alberta's Oil Sands focuses on the Province's crude bitumen oil sands - estimated to be the World's largest hydrocarbon deposits. According to the World Energy Council, Alberta's reserves are estimated to stand at least 1,600 billion barrels. Certain experts claim that Alberta's oil sands contain more petroleum than Saudi Arabia's oil fields and enough resources to supply Canada's energy for more than 475 years or total world energy needs for up to 15 years. But does the World need this oil resource?

    Alberta's Oil Sands - The Problem and the Conflict: The fuel from the tar sands is thick and heavy and is bound to water and sand. Extraction of the oil and refining it destroys countless miles of irreplaceable forest land and requires enormous amounts of energy and water. Tar sands oil production creates 2 to 3 times as much greenhouse gas as production of conventional oil hence the contribution to global warming. Enormous machinery is used to remove trees, rocks, soil and sand from the earth and once the tar sands are removed, the resulting huge holes in the ground remain along with the toxic water-borne tailings.

    As the Greenland ice cap melts (and melting is well underway) it may raise ocean levels by 20 feet, flooding major cities and coastlines worldwide. As a world together, we have to make the right decisions about the extraction and use of Alberta's immense oil resource

    Scientists have long recognized that tropical rainforests are home to the greatest biodiversity on Earth. However, Terry Erwin's study of forest canopies was surprising; he concluded that there were up to twice as many different species in the tropical forests than previously estimated! His research led to the suggestion that as much as 90-95% of the word's organisms dwell in tree tops, and about 90% of those are insects. In this episode of Environment and Ecology, students venture into the forests to learn about its awe-inspiring cornucopia of life forms!

    During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, demand for minerals to supply rapid growth in manufacturing and building rose at an incredible rate. To accommodate this demand, surface miners stripped billions of tons of minerals from the earth. In the process, the land was also stripped of vegetation and topsoil and its ability to support plant and animal life. This program looks at the great strides science has taken to reclaim this land, or restore its life-giving and life-sustaining qualities; and new insights which are helping today's mining companies meet ever greater demands for our vital mineral resources while avoiding the ecological mistakes of the past.

    SHOW ME SCIENCE ADVANCED: GAS TURBINES - ENERGY POWERHOUSES

    In a gas turbine, the linear motion of gas causes rotors to spin, ultimately creating electricity. The forward rotating blades pump air under high pressure into the combustion chamber where natural gas ignites on contact with the air. At 1,500 degrees Celsius, the stream of gas rushes past the rear turbine blades, causing the entire rotor to spin. A generator transforms that rotational energy into electricity. This program shows the extreme precision required to build a turbine, how it works and how it's used.

    SOFIA: SKY TELESCOPE

    It could be said that the sky comes alive at night. From Earth's surface, the brief absence of the Sun brings a spectacle of lights - stars, galaxies, nebulae and planets - a window into the Universe. Explorers have looked through this window for hundreds of years - first from the ground and now through ever more powerful telescopes that work at the edge of space. The Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) will take the largest and most versatile airborne telescope built to date aboard a modified Boeing 747SP 45,000 feet above Earth's surface to study space.
