Billie Eilish, BLACKPINK, and Jaden Smith star in new climate doc

Also featuring David Attenborough and Barack Obama, Dear Earth calls for urgent action to save the planet

The trailer for YouTube’s forthcoming climate documentary, Dear Earth, is here, and it features cameos from the likes of Billie Eilish, BLACKPINK’s Rosé, and Jaden Smith, as well as former president Barack Obama and Earth daddy David Attenborough.

According to an official synopsis, the film is an “epic global celebration of our planet” and will offer guidance on “what we need to do to reverse climate change”. It continues: “Dear Earth shows us the latest in innovation, technology, and the sustainable revolution that’s about to take place.”

“It is our responsibility to deal with climate change,” Eilish says in the trailer, while Rosé adds: “Our generation has to come together, we must work towards saving the Earth.”

At the end of the teaser, the interviewer asks, “Do you think this event can be a catalyst for change?”, to which Attenborough responds, “I have to believe that because I think it’s probably our last chance”.

The YouTube Originals documentary is also set to star Tinashe, Lil Dicky and GaTa, Anitta, Marsai Martin, Desmond Tutu, Sundar Pichai, the CEO of Google’s parent company Alphabet, and more.
