Frozen Planet II

Journeying from pole to pole, we reveal the surprising frozen worlds that exist across the planet and the remarkable animals that make them their home. We begin our journey in the far south in the frozen continent of Antarctica.

At the top of our planet lies a magical realm, the Arctic Ocean. After four months of winter darkness, the sun returns to reveal a frozen ocean covered in ice. However, with climate change, it is warming faster than anywhere else on Earth.

Mountains create frozen habitats on every continent on Earth, and each of these high-altitude worlds holds unique challenges for its remarkable life. Today, due to climate change, our frozen peaks are undergoing rapid change.

Antarctica is the most hostile of Earth's frozen worlds.

In the far north of our planet lie vast lands where life is challenged.

Our frozen planet is changing. Discover what these changes mean.
