Narrated by David Attenborough, the series addresses issues of conservation while featuring disparate animals in their respective home regions and has been noted for its focus on the human impact on the environment; centring on how climate change impacts all living creatures.

This is a FREE event. The event is also solar and battery powered – all of our power can be from clean renewables! It's outdoors celebrating our miraculous environment and how precious it is. It is also in support of all our actions towards fighting the escalating issues of Climate Change and Bio Diversity collapse. Roll on the 20th and the Global Strike for Climate Action. Climate change is the biggest threat to our planet and we must act. Join us in Merrion Square. The evening will begin at 7.30pm with the film kicking off approx 8.15pm. The documentary is due to finish at 9.30pm. This is a ‘Leave-No-Trace' event. This means that you, the audience will be active participants in preserving this beautiful park and keeping it clean.
