Hosted by biologist and Princeton University professor Shane Campbell-Staton, Ph.D., the six-part Human Footprint dissects all the ways humans have transformed the planet. In 4.5 billion years, the planet has never experienced anything like humans. Even our most basic needs - food, water and shelter - place a staggering burden on the planet's resources, and these biological needs are just the beginning because humans are no ordinary organisms.
Part science series and part travel show, Shane journeys from farms to restaurants, from high-tech labs to sweltering street markets, and from primeval forests to the back alleys of New York City. On his quest, Shane discovers, through the characters he meets, the impact of humans and how our actions give us a clearer vision of who we really are as a species.
