An Optimist’s Guide to the Planet’s Nikolaj Coster-Waldau & John Ealer

While the threat of climate change continues to make headlines, there are those around the world who remain steadfast in engineering solutions and fixing humanity’s mistakes. An Optimist’s Guide to the Planet is back with a six-episode second season to shine a spotlight on some of those people and their innovations.

From Cream Productions and Wildfire Television for Bloomberg and Bell Media, season two sees host Nikolaj Coster-Waldau traverse the globe to visit the researchers, activists and entrepreneurs who are helping drive a more sustainable future to prove that it can be done and provide optimism for what is often viewed as a hopeless situation.

Coster-Waldau and Cream Productions’ John Ealer sat down with TV Real Weekly to discuss the stories spotlighted in season two, the measures they took during production to reduce their own environmental impact and what they hope viewers take away from watching the series.
