- Storyline
- In 2025, global warming has drowned much of Earth, and a cruel government oppresses the remnants of Britain. Scientists are blamed and outlawed. Caught in the crossfire are 'climeys' (climate refugees), and 'senders' - genetically modified people with telekinetic and telepathic gifts. Two sender children, Mai-Li and Ash, escape when their school is raided and scientist teachers Richard and Amy Webber are arrested by The Commission, a ruthless federal task force. On the run from from its tyrannical sender agent Kurt Glemser, they join the Webbers' offspring, Greg and Karen, who have been left behind. With the help of ecologist guardian Goodman, they aim to protect vulnerable lives, rescue the world from danger, and stay one step ahead of Glemser. Together, they are Life Force.
