Speaking about the show at the World Wildlife Fund’s Planet Address, Sir David said: “Our Planet will take viewers on a spectacular journey of discovery, showcasing the beauty and fragility of our natural world.
“Today we have become the greatest threat to the health of our home but there’s still time for us to address the challenges we’ve created, if we act now. We need the world to pay attention.
