This episode traverses the Eurasian plate — from Iceland where new land is formed to the Alps where old land is destroyed. In between, we witness the twisted, gorgeous landscapes of the Earth's surface under pressure, places where scientists first came up with the very study of geology itself.

Trek with University of Toronto Scarborough geology professor Nick Eyles and his guides through volcanoes, glaciers, crags, mountains, rolling hills and broken cliffs that reveal the tectonic story of the Earth.

BONUS INTERVIEW: David Suzuki talks with Nick Eyles about the significance of geology to the growing field of earth science and how it helps us to understand our planet.

A 96-page Teacher Resource Guide, written by practicing educators, accompanies the Geologic Journey II series and provides a wealth of activities, lesson plans and curriculum outcomes to assist in integrating the DVDs and the Geologic Journey II web site (cbc.ca/geologic2) into the classroom.

The guide provides the teacher with direction and focus for each of the episodes and gives students opportunities to utilize the vast array of visual resources available to supplement their studies in this area. Using a variety of teaching and learning approaches, the guide explains the geologic features experienced by Dr. Nick Eyles of the University of Toronto Scarborough as he visits these exotic locales with help from local geologic experts. It also extends students' knowledge through writing, reflecting, discussing and explaining their findings.

Please note:
One copy of the Teacher Resource Guide is included with every Geologic Journey II DVD order.
