The show takes an unflinching look at how humans have messed up the planet in spectacular — and deadly — fashion

In Episode 2 of Netflix’s new blockbuster nature documentary series Our Planet, hundreds of walruses, driven into unusual food-hunting patterns by climate change, walk straight off a Russian cliff to their deaths.

“We were trying to get to the heart of the issue with each of the great global habitats, and to be very clear about the elements of destruction and the solutions,” Keith Scholey, series executive producer, told the New York Times. They first edge near the abyss and can then be seen tumbling end over end down the cliff face, many to their deaths, as the film makers look on, grimacing. The end result is two-to-three hundred dead walruses, and some badly injured survivors, scattered on a beach below. With each adult walrus weighing up to 1,000 kilograms, it’s a predictably grisly scene.

It is China and India. Canada can't do much more so stay out of our pockets! The headline doesn't quite make sense. Canada can, on its own curtail its emissions. It cannot curtail climate change per se, because it is an individual actor - and that's not what the environment watchdog said. Spot on. Rising emissions are unacceptable this day and age.
