At its most basic level, Tripline is a way for you communicate by putting places on a map. That's a very human activity that has been happening for thousands of years. It's also a way for you to easily ask and answer questions about your favorite places and topics and the best way to tell your travel stories. And just like in the movies, the Tripline player gives you an animated line moving across the map with a soundtrack. That's appropriate, because our journeys are our own epic tales of discovery and adventure. Press play and see for yourself.

Those accumulations of photosynthetically useless carbon - initially the woody bodies of trees, and the corpses of other plants and animals, terrestrial and aquatic, as well as, later, coal, oil, and gas - entropy, waste, for photosynthesis - represent free energy for human praxis, that is, for that new form of 'synthetic' econo-ecological activity, biomass yielding and biomass sustaining, which is human industry and industrialized agriculture."

And so presumably once we've fulfilled our ecological function of redistributing this carbon back to the atmosphere we'll be superfluous and therefore annihilated, i.e. climate change will kill us off? I think these deniers should go back to the drawing board...

His key episodes are based not around a grand organising narrative but a series of vignettes that make compelling stories.

If history is popular on TV, it can be made popular at school.
