Astounding engineering, mining and farming projects have pushed further and deeper into our planet to provide for our ever-increasing population. From the construction of the planet's largest aqueduct, soon to re-route China's waterways, to the world's largest array of greenhouses, covering hundreds of square kilometres of southern Spain in plastic, Generation Earth traces the impact of our human footprint across the globe. We're now harnessing as much of the world's resources as we can - all to provide us with the everyday consumables we take for granted.
