Summary: Going into its 7th season, TERRA: The Nature of Our World is proud to bring you stories from around our planet – vignettes of people, places, and all sizes and shapes of critters. Through these stories, we form connections with nature, animals, and our Earth, as well as other human beings. These connections are what truly makes life on our Earth worth living. The TERRA staff remain committed to bringing you the best in independently produced science and nature programming from around the globe. We are proud of our archive of more than 200 unique films that highlight stories and experiences that are the heart and soul of our natural world. We invite you to join us and to discover the science, nature, technology, and culture in these stories as we explore what truly constitutes life on Earth. These shows are meant for broad distribution. We package them for your iPod, iPad, and smart phone. You can email them, download them, and even embed them. We want these stories to be heard — each month we total over 100,000 views. We encourage you to sift through our archive and we hope you look forward to our upcoming shows. These films are the visual records of six years on our planet, and these stories help to create a portrait of our world, which at times appears very fragile. We live in a time where decisions about ever-dwindling resources, changing climates, and energy insecurity are shaping the livelihoods and futures of the next generations. This is a time to listen to science, to shun politics, and to become engaged in creating a sustainable society. TERRA is run by graduate students in the MFA in Science and Natural History Filmmaking Program at Montana State University. We are dedicating our time and energy to bring you this unique programming. We welcome your feedback, and we will continue in our humble pursuit to deliver fresh and inspiring content. We appreciate the hundreds of producers that have contributed their films for TERRA. Without the generosity of these filmmakers, none of this would be possible. And most of all, we thank you for watching. Knowing you are out there is what keeps us going!
