HUMAN FOOTPRINT
From 3,796 diapers to 43, 371 cans of soda to 28, 433 showers and everything in between,
cradle-to-grave consumption of the average American is literally laid out before your very eyes.
ABC News' Elizabeth Vargas anchors the journey which reveals exactly how much each of us
consumes and discards during a typical human lifetime on the planet Earth.
In 2007, the Hudson Valley Film Commission worked diligently to convince producers to film the highly anticipated American version in the Hudson Valley by referring locations, ideas and key crewmembers to UK based Touch Productions. They reacted swiftly by hiring local production crew and cast members. In addition to many location shoots throughout Ulster and Dutchess Counties, Touch used Tech City in Kingston for administrative offices, storage, workshop space, and shooting stages.
For those who cannot make the screening, National Geographic Channel (NGC) will air HUMAN FOOTPRINT on Sunday, April 13 and repeat dates. HUMAN FOOTPRINT is part of National Geographic Channel's Preserve Our Planet initiative – developed in collaboration with the National Geographic Society – dedicated to providing relevant conservation information and practical everyday tips across all platforms of the organization.
