my name is john d. liu. i've been documenting the changes on the plateau for 15 years. i first came here in 1995 to film an ambitious project where local people were constructing a new landscape on a vast scale. transforming a barren land into a green and fertile one. the project certainly changed my life, convincing me to become a soil scientist. the lessons i've learned in the last few years have made me realize that many of the human tragedies that we regularly witness around the world, the floods, mudslides, droughts and famines, are not inevitable. here on the loess plateau i've witnessed that people can lift themselves out of poverty. they can radically improve their environment. and by doing so, reduce the threat of climate change. >> [singing] >> when i first came to the loess plateau, i was astounded by the degree of poverty and degradation. and i wondered, "how could the chinese people, the largest ethnic group on the planet, and my fathers, and my own ancestors come from a place that was this barren?" china's loess plateau is a region that stretches for 640,0

the story that you probably know is that john d. rockefeller junior who is nelson's father made a gift of $8.5 million to purchase a site in midtown manhattan which at that point was a slaughterhouse. it had been partial together by real estate developer with the idea of building something new along the lines of rockefeller center so it was put together and there was an option on the property and john d. rockefeller gave the gifts. because of that, that site is now the united nations. it's maybe not the capital of the world of everyone's dreams. the planner who supervised the architectural work here referred to it as a workshop for peace so it's not so grand. it's a more workaday sort of place and just to conclude i want to read just a little, because it might -- it's the story of the end of world war ii and the beginning of peace. it's a panorama that era but i think it also touches deeply into american culture. because today capital of the world survives as a slogan for new york city rather than a place of dreams. as reporters not
