Lying like a teardrop in the Indian Ocean, Sri Lanka is an island that defies convention. Poised just six degrees above the equator, it’s less than 75,000 square kilometers in size. But it has enough wildlife to rival a vast continent, and it’s all down to its complicated climate and geography. This film uncovers how all life on Sri Lanka centres on one precious resource: water. Unusually, two different monsoons visit the island each year, drenching the windswept coastal plains with weeks of torrential rain. For the rest of the year, the animals of the plains must endure months of drought. Elephants numbering in their hundreds gather on the shores of a vast lake in search of water. Bold Sri Lankan leopards stalk spotted deer visiting waterholes. Mugger crocodiles, confined within small pools, choose the dry season to mate. Bee-eaters dig nesting tunnels in the dusty ground, and troops of toque macaques battle for status and hierarchy in the island’s ancient Buddhist monuments. The plains rise sharply to the central highlands, where the peaks tower 2,000 metres above sea level. Up here, there’s no shortage of water all year round, and this drives diversity, just like in a rainforest. A staggering number of animals in these mysterious cloud forests are found nowhere else on earth. Purple-faced langur monkeys have grown particularly thick coats to deal with the extreme weather. Tiny pygmy lizards give birth to live young to protect them from the cold. Even within one rhododendron bush there are three unique species. These cold, wet mountains are what make Sri Lanka one of the most species rich islands on the planet. As October approaches, the monsoon finally arrives, bringing abundant food, and relief for the animals that live on the plains.

If you look at maps of the Americas ranging from the 16th to the 20th centuries many of them have an island within the Gulf of Mexico called Bermeja…but on modern maps, it’s not there.

Why did Spain give up Gibraltar? The Iberian Peninsula encompasses the territories of Portugal, Spain, and Andorra, as well as part of France and Great Britain…the latter, often being forgotten. But, while the homeland of the former British Empire floats a bit further north than the peninsula, what some don’t always remember is that just below the borders of Spain sits a tiny, yet crucial, piece of land known as Gibraltar. And Gibraltar belongs to the British. Looking at a map of Europe, however, begs the question: why does Britain own Gibraltar? Why isn’t it part of Spain instead?... ♦Consider supporting the Channel : https://www.patreon.com/Knowledgia ♦Please consider to SUBSCRIBE: https://goo.gl/YJNqek ♦Music by Epidemic Sound ♦Script & Research : Skylar J.

How do you imitate a beloved taste? The answer could lie in the world of meat substitutes. Climate researchers warn that meat consumption is one of the main causes of the climate crisis. So people around the world are researching convincing alternatives. Even if we stopped driving cars and flying tomorrow, we can no longer meet the 1.5-degree target -- unless we also radically change our diets. Cynthia Rosenzweig, a climate impact researcher at NASA, lays out with impressive clarity why we can t continue consuming meat the way we have been. An ever-increasing proportion of the population describes itself as ‘flexitarian’. But many people can t imagine giving up meat without some kind of replacement. So it’s no wonder the market for meat alternatives is growing rapidly. "The Great Meat Debate" takes a look behind the scenes of this industry. Traditional meat producers like Rügenwalder Mühle have entered the booming meat-alternative business with plant-based alternatives. Companies like Impossible Foods in Silicon Valley and the Israeli start-up Future Meat use high-tech resources -- and hundreds of millions of dollars in investments -- to produce real meat in the lab. This documentary looks at questions like: What do you have to look out for if you want to authentically imitate a taste? Why would no one buy a schnitzel that is brown on the inside? Optimists have their say, as do skeptics.
