Find America Outdoors with Baratunde Thurston here: https://to.pbs.org/3uKw6b8 From skyscrapers, to paint, to cell phones, we depend on a seemingly unremarkable substance: sand. But behind sand's mundane existence lies a looming crisis. The modern world is built on sand, and we are running out. Baratunde Thurston goes in search of this little-known crisis and discovers why it matters. Vanishing sand means disappearing coastlines and beaches, depletion of ocean floors and vital ecosystems. The stuff we lie on at the beach is becoming so precious, there’s even a black market for sand! Fortunately, a few passionate innovators are looking for solutions. Travel to the disappearing coast of Louisiana to learn how conservationists are working to replenish sand, and the difficult choices they are forced to make. Meet an entrepreneur who’s recycling glass bottles to create more sand. And learn why solving the sand crisis matters to the future of the planet—and the outdoor environments we cherish. ***** PBS Member Stations rely on viewers like you.

BTS was the first K-Pop group to perform on Saturday Night Live and Blackpink was the first K-Pop girl group to perform at Coachella. While K-Pop may seem like traditional pop music, it's actually more complex. It borrows from a variety of genres like R&B, EDM, and Hip-Hop while maintaining it's own distinct sound. Nahre Sol investigates why K-Pop is different from other styles of Pop music, speaks to K-Pop producer and songwriter David Amber and attempts to create her own K-Pop track.
