A simulated newscast shows what could happen to our environment by the year 1985. To repeat, this is not a real newscast. It is a dramatization of the way newsmen might cover an ecological disaster. Several on-screen messages will interrupt the broadcast to assure viewers that they are not watching a real crisis unfold. The program is designed to inform viewers about the urgent need for antipollution measures. Its content is derived from the premise that reforms initiated in 1970 have not been carried out. By 1985, an international pollution crises (compounded by overpopulation) threatens man's survival. Newsmen report on phenomenon here and overseas, including smog, power failures, and food and water shortages that are pictured as disasters beyond control.
