gpb next magazine Hello Friend, Welcome to your July issue of GPB Next, the guide to the latest happenings at Georgia Public Broadcasting. Summer has officially arrived. And, while I’d never ask you to avoid the usual outdoor activities of summer (sunscreen applied of course), I do hope you’ll find some time for GPB. Whether we join you for a Passport MASTERPIECE binge session on your tablet at the beach or on your FM dial as you enjoy the AC in your car, there are always ways to commune with GPB outside of

being firmly planted on your couch (though I must say it’s my favorite)! In this issue of Next, as visualized by this month’s stunning cover art, you’ll read about the premiere of The Green Planet, a beautiful new five-part series hosted by Sir David Attenborough traveling the globe to look at the secret lives of plants! To me, it’s quintessential PBS. Speaking of which, don’t miss the annual Independence Day celebration on A Capitol Fourth airing July 4 at 8 p.m. It’s always a nostalgic and patriotic time with gorgeous fireworks and beautiful music from the National Symphony Orchestra. And that’s just a scratch at the surface of all the great TV you can find on GPB this month. Check out more TV highlights starting on page 19. In this issue, you’ll also read about the noble work of GPB’s education team and their Getting Ready guides and videos through our collaboration with the Georgia Department of Education to help families and educators as they (gulp!!) head back to school! You’ll find a profile of GPB Radio’s new All Things Considered Host Peter Biello, and a heartwarming recap of Arthur’s visit to CompassionCon and the Columbus Children’s Book Festival – all part of GPB’s Community Engagement initiatives. At GPB there is something for everyone – including you! As always, thank you for your generous gift of support. You make all of this happen and so much more, and that makes you appreciated not only by us, but also thousands of Georgians who benefit from GPB’s services across the state every day. Warmly,

Bert Wesley Huffman GPB President and Chief Revenue Officer

The Green Planet Uses the Latest Technology to Reveal the Secret, Incredible World of Plants

WEDNESDAYS, JULY 6 - AUGUST 3, 8 PM

by Mandy Wilson

L

iving secret, unseen lives, plants are often overlooked. Yet they are as aggressive, competitive and dramatic as animals — locked in life-and-death struggles for food and light, taking part in fierce battles for territory and

desperately trying to reproduce and scatter their young. Surprisingly social, they communicate with each other, care for their young and help the weak and injured. They can plan, they can count — and they can remember. The Green Planet, a new five-part documentary series hosted by Sir David Attenborough, travels the globe, from deserts to mountains, from rainforests to the frozen north, to present a fresh understanding of how plants live their lives.

“There has been a revolution worldwide in attitudes towards the natural world in my lifetime — an awakening and an awareness of how important the natural world is to us all.” - Sir David Attenborough Stream your favorite programs with GPB Passport - gpb.org/passport


gpb.org “There has been a revolution worldwide in attitudes towards the natural world in my lifetime — an awakening and an awareness of how important the natural world is to us all,” Sir David said. “An awareness that we would starve without plants, we wouldn’t be able to breathe without plants. Yet people’s understanding about plants, except in a very kind of narrow way, has not kept up with that. I think this series will bring it home.” Using pioneering new filmmaking technology and the latest science, the series takes viewers on a magical journey, going beyond the power of the human eye to make visible the amazing, hidden life of plants. Thermal cameras, macro frame-stacking, ultra-high-speed cameras and the latest developments in microscopy reveal the lives of plants and their incredible beauty.

An exploration of plants in the rainforest, a world of beauty and fierce competition.

Wednesday, July 13 “Water Worlds”
