Earth: The Power of the Planet
Examining the great forces that shape the Earth – volcanoes, the ocean, the atmosphere and ice – the programme explores their central roles in our planet’s story. How do these forces affect the Earth’s landscape, its climate, and its history? CGI gives the audience a ringside seat at these great events, while the final episode brings together all the themes of the series and argues that Earth is an exceptionally rare kind of planet – giving us a special responsibility to look after our unique world.

There are active volcanoes on Mars so… yeah.
great trailer, where can i watch the full version?
Due to the time difference between the film being made and being aired can at times give inaccurate information. This video contains one such example. The stromatilites in Australia are not the oldest organisms, but instead that title goes to some creatures found in Canada. The publication of the findings isn't very old so that is how there is a slight inaccuracy. That being said, I always enjoy BBC Earth
Earth Lab is a doc teaser.
Poop is also made layer upon layer of bacteria…
