Human Footprint - All Seasons
Season 1
Season 2
HUMAN FOOTPRINT (Season 2) explores how our everyday choices shape the planet and reflect who we are. Biologist Shane Campbell-Staton travels the globe to reveal the surprising connections between human behavior, the natural world, and the future we're creating. From supermarkets in New York to shrimp farms in Thailand, he uncovers how our food systems reshape our health and environment. He investigates biocontrol — nature-based warfare waged with ducks, microbes, and mites — and questions whether our allies may become our next threats. Shane also dives into the hidden costs of fashion, the deep history of our relationship with bees, our quest to tame water through dams and diversions, and the global fight against extinction, from ancient fossils to frozen DNA. Grounded in science and rich with human stories, this season shows that our footprint is more than what we leave behind.
