Nature Corner and beyond

 Nature Corner and beyond

For those interested in learning a bit more about our natural world, you might like the 5-part BBC TV series The Green Planet hosted by David Attenborough. The show was originally aired in 2022 but PBS is playing the series again and can be found online as well.

The show is about the wide variety of plants, how they grow, where they live, and more. The five parts involve different regions around the world such a deserts, the tropics, regions with four distinct seasons, and under water.
