It's an eight part series, featuring some more emphasis on the impact of people on the natural world.
Details here. Plenty of connections to some of the themes
It features David Attenborough's trademark narration of course, and has him walking through a meadow where Charles Darwin walked while thinking.It features long-tailed macaques stealing iPhones from tourists and returning them in exchange for food, for an example of animal adaptations.
There is a podcast to accompany the series for the first time. There was also an attempt to reduce the impact of filming by using local crews for filming.
Attenborough says:
"Children have an instinctive understanding about the way the world operates. By and large, children are better at understanding the natural world, and as adults we should be marking more opportunities for them to do that."
