So is this related to Planet Earth? Perhaps I missed Our Planet I?

UK version of Planet Earth is unforgettable. I find myself re-watching it every other year.

How is it different to non-UK versions? How do I know I'm watching the UK one?

Different narrators in UK/non-UK? I expect David Attenborough for UK (national treasure).

The american version replaced David Attenborough with Sigourney Weaver.

The first line of the video description says:

  From the Emmy® Award-winning team
  behind Planet Earth
  and Our Planet
  comes Our Planet II

Great, more propaganda. The first Our Planet was heavily criticized after it was discovered that the iconic images of walruses falling to their deaths due to "climate change" was... extremely misleading. They never apologized, but did quiet down their efforts to make walruses "the face of climate change" afterwards. But it's still on Netflix, and if you watch the evidence in full... it's a travesty of dishonesty.

Edit, correct video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IatVKZZcPG0

It's not that simple. This article covers both the original claim and the counter claim that the video you linked makes.

It comes down to numbers and frequency of this type of event.

For any topic, there are going to be polar opposite beliefs. The truth is probably some where in between if maybe a little skewed to one side. I sat through the entirety of the video you linked, and it was just as biased saying that this is proof of climate change being bogus with desperate plays by the other side.

yet again, it is just proof that you cannot be healthy by getting all of your information about any topic from a single source.
