Description
Exploring how we have been redesigning the planet as we build ever more astonishing places to live. In Dubai, we climb to the very top of the world's tallest building--over half a mile above the desert sand--to help clean the highest windows in the world. In China, the rate of change is accelerating as millions move into the cities; to keep pace, they have learned to erect 30-storey buildings in under three weeks. The world is changing underneath our feet too; we dive beneath Mexico City with the two-man team whose unenviable job is to keep the city sewers flowing, before examining a very new-world solution to this age-old problem.
