To celebrate Earth Day 2021, Apple TV+ will release a documentary special narrated by David Attenborough.

According to a press release by the streaming service, The Year Earth Changed takes a new approach to the global lockdown and the uplifting stories that came from it. The hour special will explore how changes in human behaviour can have a profound impact on nature.

"During this most difficult year, many people have reappraised the value and beauty of the natural world and taken great comfort from it," said Sir David.

"But the lockdown also created a unique experiment that has thrown light on the impact we have on the natural world. The stories of how wildlife responded have shown that making even small changes to what we do can make a big difference."
