Earth
Matters is a series produced by Riverbank Studios for
Doordarshan, India’s National Television Network.
The
series takes a hard look at the environment in the
country. Pollution in urban area, pressures on rural
India, the stress on natural resources, the impact of
unthinking human development on India’s wildlife and
forests.
Earth
Matters does this not by blaming the government or any
one faction for India’s environmental troubles rather
the programme’s philosophy is based on alerting the
individual, examining his/her part in the concerned
issue and in forming part of the solution.
The
series is anchored by wildlife filmmaker Mike Pandey and
his colleague Shibani Chaudhury.
Broadcast in both English and Hindi, it is extremely
relevant to millions of viewers in India and other
countries in the region. The series has received an
overwhelming response from remote villages in far flung
corners of India as well as from viewers as far off as
Saudi Arabia and North Africa.
