The Earth divides into 825 ecoregions — the Beni savanna, the Northern Shortgrass prairie, the mangroves of the Sundarbans. A few are still being added by the scientists. 4 of 825 have been filmed.

Every upload is dated and pinned to a 12 m plot, so the same spot can be filmed again in five years, and in ten. That is the point. Place by place, we can see whether land is being lost or kept.
