GLOBAL WARMING, POINT OF NO RETURN? Video produced by Jill Westerholm on the climate crisis. Westerholm notes that James Lovelock, who developed the Gaia theory of an ecologically integrated planet earth, thirty years ago, now believes the negatives effects of human-induced global warming are irreversible, but that other scientists say if major actions are taken within 10 years' time, there is hope for preventing some of the worst effects of severe long-term global climate change.

Sentido anticipates increasing convergence between moving and broadcast media and the static, readable internet. It is with this in mind that we have begun planning the launch of a "Sentido TV" digital platform for online posting and reader download of moving news footage and reporting.

Sentido's aim to extend its service into broadcast format multimedia stems from the belief that information is valuable in itself and that providing information over multiple channels liberates the audience that consumes such information. Sentido will not reduce its textual offerings, but will provide enhanced complementary audio-visual coverage of key stories.
