It was announced in January 2020 that Scott Z. Burns had been developing an anthology series about climate change that had been nearing a series order from Apple TV+.[2] It would officially be greenlit in December for a ten episode season.[3]

Filming for the series had begun by October 2021 in New York City under the working title Gaia, with Burns serving as writer and director, and Meryl Streep, Sienna Miller, Kit Harington, Tahar Rahim, Matthew Rhys, Daveed Diggs, Gemma Chan, David Schwimmer, Adarsh Gourav, Forest Whitaker, Marion Cotillard, Tobey Maguire, and Eiza González cast to star. The series would now only run for an eight episode season.[4][5][6] In November, Edward Norton, Indira Varma, Keri Russell, Cherry Jones and Michael Gandolfini were added to the cast.[7] In January 2022, additional castings were announced including Murray Bartlett, Yara Shahidi, Diane Lane, Heather Graham and Judd Hirsch.[8] It was announced in February 2022 that Ellen Kuras would participate in the directing of the series.[9]
