5 best Disney+ nature documentaries to watch on Earth Day 2022

Earth Day 2022 is Friday, April 22, and what better way to celebrate than by learning more about this beautiful world we live in? How can we help Earth? Learning about where we live is the best way to get involved, and there’s no streaming platform with more beautiful and engaging nature documentaries than Disney+. If you need an Earth Day 2022 watch guide, we’ve got you covered with these Disney+ nature documentaries.

Now, when it comes to streaming services, I agree that there are one too many of them at the moment. And, not that we’re complaining about this endless amount of entertainment, but it can become confusing knowing where to stream what. Not to mention, with all streaming platforms competing for our attention, it’s tough to have a favorite or go-to service.

Hulu and Netflix have a lot of content, but it’s quality that matters. HBO Max, for example, is where you need to go for big featured films. As for Disney+, there’s not much happening there, but when there is, it’s huge. After all, Disney+ is the home of two of the biggest franchises in the world, Star Wars and Marvel. But the platform is also where you can find some exceptionally well-done documentaries. Let’s have a look at what’s available right now for Earth Day 2022 watching.
