Beyond Beauty: Taiwan from Above

00:05:47 Please don't be surprised.

00:25:01 No matter how old we are.

00:28:36 on average each year, we have 93 days of heavy rain

00:30:14 we see Mt. Dawu from above.

00:32:37 Men arrogantly drew the shortest line across the mountains and forests.

00:34:17 let alone humble creatures like us.

00:36:35 have been mercilessly cut down.

00:41:00 But until disaster strikes

00:42:36 The total volume of the 17 major reservoirs in Taiwan was 2.65 billion cubic meters.

00:45:19 This is an amount far more than the land can bear.

00:48:08 The protruding breakwater

00:53:49 If we carry on what we have been doing

00:57:27 As we cannot see it, we never feel threatened.

01:18:02 They refused to turn their land into an industrial park.

01:19:27 Sometimes, you get even less than you put in.

01:22:38 Isn't there more to this?

01:28:50 Let us work together to make home a better place.
