The World without            
In these documentaries produced for the BBC World Service, Fred Dove ponders what life on our planet would be like if two very basic entities didn’t exist.
FIRST HALF




Cows are central to our existence in many ways. They produce dairy products. They’ve played an important role in medicine. In some cultures, cows have religious significance. But cows also contribute to global warming. Fred Dove ponders a world without cows.
SECOND HALF






Fred Dove explores the versatility of copper. From brass instruments; to electrical wires; to our bodies, copper is an integral element. We explore what the world would be like without copper.
