Premiering April 5 on CBS and Paramount +, The Visioneers with Zay Harding is produced by Hearst Media Production Group's in association with the VoLo Foundation, a privately funded nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating change and global impact by supporting science-based climate solutions, advancing education and improving health.
The format, described as an 'eco-adventure', will be part of CBS WKND's educational/informational programming block, which consists of three hours of live-action documentaries and lifestyle series aimed at teenagers, all designed to meet the educational programming requirements set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) under the Children's Television Act.
The concept is simple: coinciding with the start of Earth Month, the format, hosted by international explorer Zay Harding (aka ‘Jeff Northcutt’ on MTV's Spyder Games television series), will take viewers around the world and showcase the remarkable scientists, engineers and everyday people who are creating environmental solutions.
The show is part of the ‘Formats for a better world’ trend, i.e. formats that promote correct and more sustainable behaviour, with titles such as The Yurt - Celebrity Green Challenge, Re-Fashion, Restaurant of the Future (about sustainable food) and others. And we really need such formats, and - above all - we need a better world...
