3.0 out of 5 stars An Oldie, June 30, 2006

This review is from: Planet Earth: The Complete Series, Vol. 1 - 3 (DVD)
Since there is no information about this boxed set on the Amazon web site, I clicked on Internet Movie Database and searched the title. I came up with a 2006 David Attenborough production. This isn't it. I have watched only the section on climate and noticed how old it looked. Toward the end came a comment, "in the 90's scientists hope to find out..." As far as I can tell, this series was made in the 1980's. Despite its age, I will certainly use the climate part in my college biology course. It is a fair treatment that emphasizes science.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the 1980's PBS documentary..., November 6, 2006
This review is from: Planet Earth: The Complete Series, Vol. 1 - 3 (DVD)
Upon further inspection of this title, the other reviewer has it right. This program was a 7-part series which first aired on PBS in the United States during the spring of 1986. I watched it at the time and it is very good, although now the scientific facts might be a bit outdated. It's an interesting show nonetheless. Glad to see that they released it on DVD format...

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Treatment of Geologic Forces, April 13, 2007
By 
Elizabeth Twain (Southern California, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Planet Earth: The Complete Series, Vol. 1 - 3 (DVD)
Although not the most recent film on the forces shaping our planet, the Earth, I have found nothing to compare with this explanation of the forces that have shaped geological Earth. I use it with both English Language Arts and History in middle and high school to set a common understanding of the way the Earth has become the planet we call home. From this foundation, I can take students around the globe as we read and study how and why people settled where they are, and how the places they live have affected development, and even the flourishing of culture, and the humanities.
