This.

This. is a great show. It's called Big Ideas for a Small Planet and for some reason I can only find the 3rd season of it on Netflix. The show's focus is on creativity, innovation, and environmentalism as it surveys three different ideas per episode with an overarching theme for the whole show (examples include design, babies, entertainment, games, architecture). The show is ridiculously simple and that's maybe its best attribute. There is no emotional detachment if you don't see all the episodes back to back; instead, you can learn a few interesting facts and leave after the 20 minutes have elapsed. I'll keep this post short but I did manage to find this somehow on netflix and thought more people should watch this neat little show. My favorite episode was about edibles -- this summer I plan to grow my own food in my back yard.

Here's a shitty wikipedia article about the show. I could have found something more significant, but this is about as much research as I'm capable of doing at 1:35 AM (that's ante meridiem for my more stupid reeders).

Tree bombs.
