Scars On The Surface

Views the earth as seen by the Appollo astronauts - an earth that is blue, beautiful and unscarred. Shows a montage of mined areas, scars on the planet's surface inflicted by man in his search for minerals and energy. Reports on two techniques of restoration used in WestGermany, noting that such land rehabilitation and reduction of extravagant and trivial uses of resources can eliminate some of the environmntal impact of mining.
