Sir Attenborough concludes: "The time has come now when we can't just have our own selfish interests, when we have to think of other people who are dependent upon what we do.
"That applies to everybody on the planet. We have to work together, we have to have international agreements, we have to work things out."
David Attenborough: A Life on Our Planet will launch globally on Netflix, Sunday 4th October 2020. Looking for something else to watch? Check out our guide to the best TV series on Netflix and best movies on Netflix, or visit our TV Guide.
