Celebrate Earth Day with Love Nature on Sling Freestream
Love Nature on Sling Freestream is the perfect way to celebrate Earth Day. Here are three mind-blowing things to watch.
This Saturday, April 22, is Earth Day, an annual event to demonstrate support for environmental protection. Recognized as the largest secular observance in the world, here are a few quick stats about Earth Day:
1970: First Earth Day
1 Billion: Individuals mobilized for action every Earth Day
190+: Countries engaged
Our modest Mother Earth offers a set of conditions conducive to the dawn of life billions of years ago (yes, billions!). Most uniquely, Earth is covered in water, which gave rise to its tremendous biodiversity.
One thing’s for sure: Earth’s weird and wonderful creatures are an absolute mind-melt. From Chinese water deer (nicknamed “vampire deer”) to transparent frogs, the third rock from the sun is full of truly amazing nature-weirdness.
So, to celebrate Earth Day this weekend:
1. Do something green to benefit future generations, THEN
2. Watch a few of nature’s wonders with free content on Love Nature

Narrated by actor Graham McTavish (The Hobbit Trilogy), Love Nature features documentaries and series that showcase nature’s jaw-dropping power.
To get you started, here are three things to watch:
A Bee’s Diary
Bees produce about 1/3 of our food supply. So they’re kind of a big deal. What’s it like to be a bee, you might ask? A Bee’s Diary tells that story. Scientists are learning that each bee in a hive is an individual, with its own personality. Some are timid, some are brave. Some like it hot, others don’t. Some are smart, others not so much.
Bee curious and learn about these critically important, fascinating insects.
Sharks: The Big Five
Will humans ever NOT be fascinated by sharks?
This gripping doc dives deep into the waters off the African coast to provide an insightful look at tigers, sand tigers, bulls, hammerheads, and great whites. By laying out the facts and debunking Hollywood myths, the documentary reveals a new side of these prehistoric and oft-maligned “villains” of the sea, showing why sharks play such a vital role in their environment.
Secret Life of the Tasmanian Devil
What? Tasmanian devils are a real thing, not just a Looney Tunes character?
In fact, they are real. They are the bruisers of the animal kingdom: feisty, fearless, and always up for a fight. But despite being at the top of the food chain, these marsupials face extinction due to a deadly disease they pass on to one another through biting.
Join conservationists as they step into the turf of this brawling ball of ferocity, in a bid to rescue them from themselves.
Yes, dear readers, reveling in our planet’s jaw-dropping spectacle of nature is always a treat. Plus, there’s never been a more important time to connect with our planet, in all her glory. So this Earth Day: don’t miss out – or this little guy COULD haunt your dreams.
Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
