- True North: The Sean Swarner Story is an unflinching documentary about one man's relentless quest to prove that nothing is stronger than the human spirit. As a teenager, Sean Swarner was diagnosed with two lethal forms of cancer. Both times he was given only weeks to live and both times he fought back and survived, but not before the disease claimed one of his lungs. Now, he's trekking to the brutal and unforgiving North Pole, where temperatures hover around minus 40 degrees. If he makes it, he will have completed The Explorers' Grand Slam - climbing the highest peaks on all seven continents and then trekking to the South and North Poles. His feat is daunting, but Sean is on a mission- a Mission of Hope. Swarner has dedicated each one of his climbs to the cancer patients he hope to inspire- symbolized by a flag he carries with him to each peak. His exploration to the North Pole is no different. With the help of Vern Yip, television personality and interior designer, Sean designs the Flag of Hope. Months leading up to his final endeavor, Sean takes the Flag of Hope across the country. One by one, those affected by cancer put their names and loved ones on the flag. United by one purpose, Sean hopes to cover the world in hope. True North: The Sean Swarner Story is a jaw-dropping look at how far a man will go to feel alive, and to bring hope to millions of people touched by cancer around the world.
- In the Arctic, the Norwegian city of Longyearbyen, located in the Svalbard archipelago, has been extracting coal for one hundred years as an energetic and economic source, which stirs many environmental paradoxes.
- For millions of years ago, Svalbard did lay south of the Equator and has driven to the north, and the climate has shifted from tropical to arctic as we know it today. The fossils one may find bear in touch with this. The program follows some students from Longyearbyen in search for some fossils.

- Mann, Maus und Monster-Truck versinken im Schlamm der tauenden Gletscher Islands. Kirsten Fuchs und Volker Strübing beobachten schwimmende Seniorenheime, ernten ihr erstes Arktis-Eis und lernen jede Menge über Gletscher und die richtige Zubereitung von Walfleisch. Und sie lernen zu warten. Warten auf besseres Wetter, auf das Ende des Sturmtiefs, das die Arctic Janus in Island festhält. Doch schließlich geht es nach Jan Mayen, einer winzigen Insel mit einem Vulkan und viel Nebel. Die beiden Schriftsteller lernen die 18 Inselbewohner kennen, würfeln das Wetter und hören viele eindeutige Vielleichts zum Klimawandel. Der Aufenthalt ist kurz, die Nacht am Polartag auch und so geht es weiter nach Spitzbergen. Hier gilt es, sich gegen angriffslustige Vögel zu verteidigen, und Kirsten Fuchs bezwingt mit Spitzbergen-Rolf die Spinne.
- The polar regions are earth's least hospitable environment, yet people live in the Arctic regions. Modern urbanized life is possibly even there thanks to technology, but some (often tribal) communities still practice traditional methods, dependent on specific fauna, such as reindeer herding, dog sleds, hunting seals and collecting bird eggs. Some of those are even used by modern patrols in mineral-rich parts, e.g. in Greenland. The even harsher Antartic, were territorial claims are frozen, remains off-limits for exploitation, except controlled eco-friendly tourism and scientific research.
- Brian concludes his exploration by asking, what next for the ape that went to space?
