Rainforest Rescue week
During the week of the 19th - 24th April 2010, Sky broadcast a series of environment and rainforest related programmes. There was something for everyone, from Ross Kemp to Steve Jones.
Battle For the Amazon saw Ross Kemp on a journey through Brazil, Peru, Columbia and Ecuador. Along the way he encounter everything from raids on illegal loggers, warring ranchers over land and areas devastated by the cocaine industry.
Jones Boys Amazon Adventure - in this exciting mini series, Steve Jones and his brothers went on the ultimate lad’s adventure in the Amazon. Together they indulged in a whole heap of madcap activities in the Rainforest, a focal point for our fight against global warming.
Craig Stevens visited the Eden Project in Cornwall to find out why the Rainforests are important to our environment, what’s happening to them and what can be done to save them.
