Conservationist Dr. M. Sanjayan launches Changing Planet, an ambitious seven-year global effort to monitor climate change from locations across the planet.
From the Arctic to the Amazon, vulnerable habitats are changing, revealing surprising animal behaviors as species adapt.
Featuring the latest science and emphasizing local voices, Changing Planet will monitor climate change in six iconic locations – Cambodia, Kenya, Iceland, Brazil, California, and Maldives – every year over the next seven years.
As locations are revisited each Earth Day, and as pressure on the natural world increases, we’ll meet the winners and losers, see the work communities are undertaking to rebalance the planet, and find reasons for hope.
Watch Changing Planet on-demand through the free PBS Video app or at video.witf.org starting April 20 at 8pm through May 19, or watch the premiere on WITF TV Wednesday, April 20 at 8pm. Set a reminder to watch or add it to your calendar here.
