What a legend

In his 2020 documentary film David Attenborough: A Life On Our Planet, Attenborough advocates for people to adopt a vegetarian diet or to reduce meat consumption to save wildlife, noting that "the planet can't support billions of meat-eaters."

on the prospect of retirement, he commented: "If I was earning my money by hewing coal I would be very glad indeed to stop. But I'm not. I'm swanning round the world looking at the most fabulously interesting things. Such good fortune."

Sir David wants fewer Africans and Indians on the planet:

"Sending food aid to famine-stricken countries avoids the more fundamental problem of population growth, Sir David Attenborough has said, as he called for more debate about population control.

The renowned broadcaster told the Daily Telegraph the world was "heading for disaster", and without action the "natural world will do something".

"What are all these famines in Ethiopia? What are they about?" he said. "They're about too many people for too little land. That's what it's about. And we are blinding ourselves. We say, get the United Nations to send them bags of flour. That's barmy."

He admitted the issues had huge sensitivities, but insisted it was important to "just keep on about it".

One area of concern, he said, was about the right to have children. "To start with, it is the individual's great privilege to have children. And who am I to say that you shan't have children? That's one thing," he said. "And the last sensitivity – and the most tricky of all – is the fact, when you talk about world population, the areas we're talking about are Africa and Asia, you know."

BLUE PLANET 3, NARRATED BY SIR DAVID, ANNOUNCED:

Happy Birthday David,
Thank you for getting me interested in nature, watching the Life of Mammals and the Life of Birds were formative experiences for me.

You're welcome!

>released on his birthday to bait as many views as possible
What a garbage video. It doesn’t even make a single worthwhile point
>>
>>5122985
See this is how you talk about these kinds of things matter-of-factly. He isn't saying anything is wrong with the people of Africa or Asia, just that they have problems of having too many children in areas where resources are more scarce.
Only the whiniest liberal would have a problem with what David is saying here. Overpopulation is a real concern for the future and no amount of "cultural sensitivity" will solve that problem.

Based tortoise
Hope he makes it to 200
