The BBC series ‘Frozen Planet II’ documents the complex life of fauna and flora in the coldest regions of the world. Who are on the threshold of major climate changes
The series is being aired on Rete4 «Frozen Planet II» of the BBC. I do not recommend it to the faint of heart, I recommend it to those who care about our planet. In 2011, Frozen Planet offered viewers an unprecedented perspective on life in the Poles. Eleven years later, «Frozen Planet II» is back in theArctic and inAntarctic to document the complex life of fauna and flora in the coldest regions of the world. Even those distant lands are on the threshold of
big changes
. There is no doubt that things are not going well, indeed they are going very badly: we are in January and there temperature in Italy it is as if springand, our mountains are devoid of snow, lakes and rivers are below the usual level. And then the extreme weather events they prove it, regardless of whether or not they are linked to global warming. In fear, the media catastrophism which certainly does not help the understanding of the complex phenomenon.
In the series we discover territories in which they live alone heroic groups of animals and where each species is forced to extreme challenges, from Pakistan to Mongolia, from Greenland to Norway, from Sweden to Alaska, from Nepal, to the Southern Ocean. There is also talk of the glacier of great paradisethis year suffered a frontal withdrawal by more than 209 meters compared to 2021. The fear of
environmental catastrophe
it often prevents us from seeing how much good has been done, think of the wars almost won against acid rain e ozone holeand one is spreading corrosive skepticism which undermines any faith in the ability to make things better. A large number of enterprises are committed to the renovationeven if in many cases they are operations of green washing. The most interesting part of «Frozen Planet II» is, in fact, represented by the tricks with which the animals they try to adapt to changes.
