David Attenborough Premieres Ocean Documentary Amid Climate Concerns

Sir David Attenborough has premiered his feature-length documentary 'Ocean with David Attenborough' in London, just before his 99th birthday, with support from high-profile guests including King Charles III. The film, produced in collaboration with National Geographic, marks Attenborough's first such partnership and is set for a global television and streaming release in June 2025 to coincide with World Ocean Day. Drawing on Attenborough's lifetime of exploration, the documentary highlights the devastating impacts of destructive fishing and climate change on marine ecosystems, while emphasizing the interconnectedness of ocean habitats. Attenborough delivers a hopeful message, stating that the ocean can recover if humanity takes swift and decisive action to protect it. The documentary will also be made available to educational institutions, aiming to inspire worldwide conservation efforts. This project stands as one of Attenborough's final urgent calls to address climate change and safeguard the planet's oceans.
