The only complain I have is that they should stop making every episode related to global warming and human cause . I get it, we caused many of the problem, but could they make some episodes where I can just enjoy the wonder of nature instead it reflect back to man made global warming.
Our Planet was traumatic. I quit watching about 2/3 of the way through. I'm not sure I can trust Attenborough anymore as he's becoming increasingly activist.

I don't watch these shows to be preached to. I watch them to enjoy the wonder of nature and to learn about biology, not to despair.

I'm particularly pissed off at crap like this because my Dad and I used to watch nature shows together since I was just a toddler. Many years later, as he was dying of Parkinson's disease, and my evil stepmom limited my time with him, I wanted to watch a nature show with him like old times. We chose one (I can't remember what it was called).

Now you have to know that both my dad and I suffer from a lot of anxiety and depression, but especially my Dad, who has it really really bad.

Well this show instead of being a beautiful and exciting nature show was just a show about natural catastrophism. It was a horrible experience. I didn't know it would be the last thing I would ever do with my dad.

We're both super into the environment. We don't need to be preached to.

Yes, being reminded that we are constantly destroying the wonder of nature is annoying when watching the wonder of nature... Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Unlike oil companies, science doesn't have a billion dollar marketing team. These serve as that, to a degree.
You honestly believe climate change doesn't have a billion dollar marketing budget?

You're either ignorant or didn't think that statement through.

I'm sorry that you don't know the difference between marketing and "research." Oil companies have spent billions covering up their own research that found they were causing climate change. Governments have spent money on scientific reserach who found that, indeed, the oil companies findings were correct. This is very cut-and-dried stuff.

edit: watching football. they just ran an energy transfer (Dallas oil co) commercial talking about how the modern world falls apart without oil and natural gas. still waiting on the same thing by scientists. ironically, the commercial will probably horrify people who didn't realize their makeup, hair products, etc are petroleum products.

I've watched this series before and whatever else he's done that's ended up on streaming services. Definitely highly recommend his stuff. If you've never watched something he narrates, he's funny. Entertaining funny with a warm Gramps with the BEST STORIES kinda voice. The cinematography is also amazing.
Did you copy this from the amazon review 😂

You admit, like everyone who can see, that nature documentaries show how incredible the world is.

But you're mad when the shows that present that beauty also point out that humans are rapidly destroying it. Even though the films have a platform that reaches millions of people who can be inspired to change so that it won't be destroyed.

Do you see the disconnect?

Agree with many others. There are plenty of places to find out more or preach about climate change. Having multiple comments throughout each episode about it really got tiring. I have planet earth 1 and 2. I'm pretty sure everything after the success of planet earth 1 was just a tool for climate change commentary. A shame really.

Seeing how your message adds nothing to this thread other than being inflammatory I'm pretty sure a mod will jump on it soon.
I provided my opinion on this deal in case somebody is on the fence in regards to whether or not they're willing to wait the month to receive it and in my opinion it's absolutely worth the wait but you go ahead with trying the troll, MOD please.

There isn't a disconnect because there was never a necessary "connect" in the first place. I don't see everything as a "platform" for political activism like you people do. And frankly I think that's much better at getting " the message" out.

What did we miss? I know the first letter B must be something about being big but can't figure out the rest.

Some folks haven't figured out yet that beating a dead horse doesn't bring that horse back to life.

no.

you should be as uncomfortable as they are when they're trying to enjoy the wonder of nature. when their livelihoods and conservation efforts are being ignored, and you complaining about it, it seems like their efforts are working. people should know and people should be upset.
