A Life on Our Planet

Je kunt nu een film kijken genaamd 'A Life On Our Planet'. Deze film is gemaakt door David Attenborough, een wereldberoemde filmmaker die talloze natuurfilms en documentaires gemaakt heeft.

Hij vertelt hoe hij de aarde heeft zien veranderen tijdens zijn 94-jarige leven. Vanaf dat hij kleine jongen was, tot nu. En hij waarschuwt voor hoe de wereld er over 50 jaar uit zal zien, wanneer we zo doorgaan.
