SEEING THE EARTH THROUGH ARIEL’S LENS
KQED Presents and San Francisco-based explorer Ariel Waldman debut this new sixpart docuseries, Life Unearthed with Ariel Waldman. Focusing on Antarctica and the North American prairies, it reveals Earth’s ecosystems through radical shifts in scale, from microscopic wildlife to the planet’s most iconic animals. The series airs every Wednesday of this month and premieres on Wednesday, April 1, at 7:30pm on KQED 9 as well as the PBS App. And, if you’re wanting to see even more outstanding earth-centric shows (in observance of Earth Day on Wednesday, April 22), look out for programs in this shade of brown starting on page 4.
