After the formal launch of colour television on BBC-2 in 1967 a number of
Trade Test Transmission films were shown during the day for engineers to use
and this continued until 1973.
I never forgot one of these films, The Shadow of Progress, and recently I
managed to get hold of a copy of it from another site (thankyou to the
original uploader, whoever you are).
This then is that film and it took a 1970's look at the pollution of natural
resources and the misuse of technology, long before the Greens and Al Gore
made the subject the witch hunt it now is.
