Better production methods, consuming more responsibly, eating healthier… these challenges are a key concern for populations. With an ever-growing awareness, the mass distribution sector is undergoing a huge upheaval and innovations are emerging that advocate a more sustainable and local distribution chain. Purchasing goods is no trivial act, and we must learn to shop differently. So, how will be shopping in the future? What inventions will enable us to produce, buy or even eat differently?

A country’s heritage is a reflection of its history and its common legacy. It is our duty to preserve these priceless works of art and witness accounts of past civilizations. Scanners, virtual reality, ultra-strong rays… new technologies are now a crucial tool for preserving these cultural treasures from the past. How will these innovations revolutionize archaeological research and the everyday lives of professionals? In the future, will these inventions help us find out more about our history to the point where we can create digital conservation areas?

In the final episode of Myth or Science, microbiologist Jennifer Gardy investigates one of humanity’s most overlooked and misunderstood substances: poop. Though commonly dismissed as disgusting waste, feces may contain remarkable clues about our health, our environment, and even the future of sustainable technology. Through a series of surprising experiments, Jennifer tests whether flushing a toilet spreads fecal bacteria around the bathroom, whether colon cleanses improve health, and whether visible corn in stool is evidence of poor digestion. She also explores what the shape, smell, frequency, and buoyancy of stool can reveal about the human body. Beyond personal health, the episode uncovers the wider scientific potential of waste. Researchers analyse sewage to track the health of entire communities, specially trained dogs locate orca feces to help protect endangered whales, and engineers transform sewage sludge into clean drinking water and energy. Jennifer even investigates whether dogs align themselves with the Earth’s magnetic field while defecating and how fish waste helps create tropical beaches. ------- Chapters ▷ 00:00 -The Hidden Power of Poop ▷ 01:38 - The Toilet Plume Experiment ▷ 05:44

How much oil is left - and what happens when the world’s most important energy source becomes harder, riskier and more expensive to extract? This compelling energy documentary investigates the global dependence on crude oil, the theory of peak oil and the environmental dangers of deep-sea drilling. Beginning with the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, it examines how technological failures, financial pressure and difficult drilling conditions contributed to one of the worst oil spills in history. Travel from oil fields in Austria and Saudi Arabia to research centres in Europe, Canadian oil sands and offshore platforms in the Gulf of Mexico. Scientists, geologists, engineers and industry experts reveal how oil is formed, how new reserves are discovered and why many of the world’s largest oil fields may be declining. The documentary also explores enhanced oil recovery, horizontal drilling, water injection, polymer technology, Arctic exploration and the enormous financial and environmental costs of extracting unconventional oil. It investigates the use of chemical dispersants during the Deepwater Horizon cleanup and questions their impact on marine ecosystems and human
