The Green Planet (Blu-ray/UHD)

After three years of filming in 27 countries with time-lapse photography, drones, and special camera rigs called triffids, Sir David Attenborough reveals his “passion project”—an awe-inspiring nature series that shows you as never before the Earth’s astounding plants, and their life-sustaining relationship with animals, humans and the environment. Catch up on more than two decades of new discoveries about the fierce competition for life in tropical forests, hidden water worlds, and seasonal habitats where survival is all about timing—plus deserts that are hostile to life. You’ll understand better than ever why it’s so important to help our planet grow greener and wilder. Five episodes. Produced by the BBC Studios Natural History Unit. 5 hours on 2 Discs SDH
