Planet Earth is a 2006 eleven-part television series produced by the BBC Natural History Unit and narrated by David Attenborough. Five years in the making, it was the most expensive nature documentary series ever commissioned by the BBC and also the first to be filmed in high definition. The series received multiple awards, including four Emmy Awards, a Peabody Award, and an award from the Royal Television Society.
A different series, packaged with the "Planet Earth 5 disc DVD set", Planet Earth - The Future is in fact the series being highlighted here.
Planet Earth - The Future is a 2006 three-part documentary series on the environment and conservation, produced by the BBC Natural History Unit as a companion to the multi-award-winning nature documentary Planet Earth. The programmes were originally broadcast on BBC Four immediately after the final three episodes of Planet Earth on BBC One. Each episode highlights the conservation issues surrounding some of the species and environments featured in Planet Earth, using interviews with the film-makers and eminent figures from the fields of science, conservation, politics, and theology. The programmes are narrated by Simon Poland and the series producer was Fergus Beeley. BACKGROUND: When the first episodes of Planet Earth were broadcast in the UK, the producers were criticised for glossing over the environmental problems faced by the planet. Executive producer Alastair Fothergill defended the approach, explaining that a heavy-handed environmental message would not work on primetime BBC One. However, the Planet Earth film crews had witnessed first-hand, as adults, epic scenes of both environmental degradation and the increasing scarcity of wildlife in some of the shooting locations. So this experience formed the basis of Planet Earth - The Future which was designed to engage viewers in a mature debate about environmental issues.
A Perfect Planet is a 2021 five-part earth science series presented by David Attenborough. The series covers volcanoes, the sun, weather and oceans, with the final episode focusing on human impact on the environment. "Human impact on the environment" or anthropogenic impact on the environment includes changes to biophysical environments and to ecosystems, biodiversity, and natural resources caused directly or indirectly by humans, including global warming, environmental degradation (such as ocean acidification), mass extinction and biodiversity loss, ecological crisis, and ecological collapse. Modifying the environment to fit the needs of society is causing severe effects. Some human activities that cause damage (either directly or indirectly) to the environment on a global scale include population growth, overconsumption, overexploitation, pollution, and deforestation, to name a few. Some of the problems, including global warming and biodiversity loss, pose an existential risk to the human species. Some experts attribute this crisis to overall human overpopulation.
