  • The Human Planet
    INTRODUCTION: THE HUMAN PLANET our and a half billion years ago, out of the dirty halo of cosmic dust left over from the creation of our sun, a spinning clump of minerals F coalesced. Earth was born, the third rock from the sun. Soon after, a big rock crashed into our planet, shaving a huge chunk off, forming the moon and knocking our world on to a tilted axis. The tilt gave us seasons and currents and the moon brought ocean tides. These helped provide the conditions for life, which first emerged some 4 billion years ago. Over the next 3.5 billion years, the planet swung in and out of extreme glaciations. When the last of these ended, there was an explosion of complex multicellular life forms. The rest is history, tattooed into the planet’s skin in three-dimensional fossil portraits of fantastical creatures, such as long-necked dinosaurs and lizard birds, huge insects and alien fish. The emergence of life on Earth fundamentally changed the physics of the planet.1 Plants sped up the slow 1 429HH_tx.indd 1 17/09/2014 08:22 ADVENTURES IN THE ANTHROPOCENE breakdown of rocks with their roots, helping erode channels down which rainfall coursed, creating rivers. Photosynthesis transformed the chemistry of the atmosphere and oceans, imbued the Earth system with chemical energy, and altered the global climate. Animals ate the plants, modifying again the Earth’s chemistry. In return, the physical planet dictated the biology of Earth. Life evolves in response to geological, physical and chemical conditions. In the past 500 million years, there have been five mass extinctions triggered by supervolcanic erup- tions, asteroid impacts and other enormous planetary events that dramatically altered the climate.2 After each of these, the survivors regrouped, proliferated and evolved.

As we continue to experience the pandemic in our communities, we hope and trust that 2021 will bring health, normalcy and new opportunities to you and your families. As we look back at 2020 and the adversity the pandemic created, we are reminded that it also created opportunities for us to rise to the occasion. It taught us to embrace technology, think outside the box to create fresh content and do more to serve our educators and students. ThinkTV and CET are grateful for the strong community support we received in 2020. Your support allows us to produce local arts and culture programs while pursuing educational initiatives that better serve our communities. We couldn’t do our work without you, so thank you. Of course the great work doesn’t stop. As I write, we are working on a documentary about Ohio women during the Suffrage movement; we are working on the second part of The Dayton Arcade: Waking the Giant; we continue to work with our art and performance partners to help provide a stage for their works; we continue our work on our weekly arts and cultural shows and we will begin working on projects around diversity, racism and inclusion.

  • Deadly Profits: Illegal Wildlife Trafficking Through Uganda And
    Cover: The carcass of an elephant killed by militarized poachers. Garamba National Park, DRC, April 2016. Photo: African Parks Deadly Profits Illegal Wildlife Trafficking through Uganda and South Sudan By Ledio Cakaj and Sasha Lezhnev July 2017 Executive Summary Countries that act as transit hubs for international wildlife trafficking are a critical, highly profitable part of the illegal wildlife smuggling supply chain, but are frequently overlooked. While considerable attention is paid to stopping illegal poaching at the chain’s origins in national parks and changing end-user demand (e.g., in China), countries that act as midpoints in the supply chain are critical to stopping global wildlife trafficking. They are needed way stations for traffickers who generate considerable profits, thereby driving the market for poaching.
