Anyone see this last night? It's on BBC HD tonight as well :)

A bit like a nature documentary with the "making of" filler
interwoven into the narrative.
It felt like we as viewers were exploring this unexplored land alongside
the band of intrepid explorers.

My worry was that the local government have invited the UK to help keep
the area as it is by buying carbon credits. So are the BBC being used to
soften us up for our government giving the locals millions to keep the
forest as it is ?

So how does this carbon credits thing work ? What does Guyana(sp) get
out of having more credits ?
