David Attenborough: The Truth About Climate Change

“This is our planet: planet Earth. It contains an astonishing variety of landscapes and climates. Since life began, around 4,000 million years ago, it has gone through extraordinary changes in its climate and in the species that live on it. But now it seems that our planet is being transformed - not by natural events, but by the actions of one species: mankind.” SIR DAVID ATTENBOROUGH

This DVD is Sir David Attenborough’s personal journey to discover how global warming is changing the planet he knows so well. Examining the evidence for this confusing phenomenon, Sir David finds out what’s causing it and whether mankind is to blame. From Hurricane Katrina to the glacier ice crashing into the sea, Attenborough discovers it’s a race against time. Starving polar bears and the first direct victim of global warming, the recently extinct golden toad, demonstrate that the danger for humanity may not be far behind. Sir David Attenborough explores the personal and technological changes we can make to avert catastrophe.
