This man is a gift to humanity and the world itself. He has and still continues to inspire a countless number of individuals in his lifetime and I am one of them. It all started when I started to watch BBC documentaries narrated by Sir Attenborough in my undergrad. That phase was an eye-opener for me. I decided to change my field of study during my undergraduate and wanted to invest my life studying and doing something which is in close proximity to the natural world. As of this day, I am pursuing my master's in Water Resources Engineering and focusing more on the impacts of climate change on the hydrological cycle of the earth and how it affects us all. I have never been more satisfied with my studies and life in general. Every day the motivation is to do something (big or small) which serves the purpose this man has stated in each one of his documentaries: take care of this planet as if it is your own home, be consciously aware of the choices you make every day and their environmental consequence. I am eternally grateful to the BBC team for their work and Sir Attenborough for his exquisite narration which influenced me and millions of others to take a step forward towards acting as responsible human beings of this beautiful planet.

David Attenborough is a TREASURE!

Who else came here just to listen to Sir David Attenborough’s iconic voice?

I always deeply look forward to hearing anything Attenborough has to say. He is the true voice and father of our planet. Long live Sir David.

eg Trump. I don't think the older generation generally are going to make the change, they're too set in their ways. I think it's down to the next two generations to make the connection between humans and their devastating effects on the rest of nature. If humans want a future, the future for them is vegan. Otherwise the various pandemics will make the decision for them.

Sir David Attenborough is amazing and epitomizes his title of sir. He truly is a living legend and it's admirable how he continues to worry, especially knowing that he's in his nineties and shows no need to and no sign of slowing down. To Sir David, here here!!! David, you da man!!!

I love sir David Attenborough! He is such a well reflected, well spoken person who has contributed so much to educating and fascinate people about the natural world. I hope his new series will reach out to people and make even more people demand action on the issue of climate change.

He was my TV dad growing up. It's all just sad now seeing what we've done to the planet.

Hats off to Sir David Attenborough, i am a teacher myself, so I can appreciate his mastery and his deep love of nature. Each of his film is a perfect science class and a lecture given by a true naturalist.

A true icon! so much wisdom he shares

Sir David Attenborough keeping it real 👍

Long live Sir Attenborough. You are a true treasure of this planet.

absolute hero

Sir David Attenborough is truly a legend. His certainly has inspired millions like me to know, learn, respect and love the natural biological wonders. That knowledge, affection and inspiration is most needed now to save our planet from ourselves.

My childhood hero! A person who inspired me from thousands of miles apart! Long live sir, long live.

For real when this legend dies, hopefully never, the entire world will mourn its not something you wont hear about. I cant wait to see his new work and hope it is super popular.

I think that is true for many people who have a passion for something in their life. .... Many old people just fade because they feel they have nothing else to live for . Family etc...but family is often far away busy with their own lifes. I've notices that people who have a passion for something often live much longer. It can be science , literature anything. Or even if they have to care for grandkids (for example if their own kinds passed away or are uncapable ). Even caring for pets prolongs ones life.... Its all about purpose. A human without purpose looses incentive and interest for life and slowly fades away.

big D looks in fine fettle. I hope I can look that dapper when I'm 93. She looks like she got dressed in the dark and came through a bush backwards to the interview.

I'm very glad he's still in very well condition, where most of people already struggling to move at 70.. I hope i can be as healthy as he is if i ever get to live to that age.. I hope all of you will too..

Legend

One question why was this latest David Attenborough Film not being broadcast on BBC TV as nearly all of the past David Attenborough films over the many decades have been broadcast on BBC TV. But Netflix broadcast, which was probably David Attenborough’s most important film ever about the future of this planet. If this very important film had been broadcast on BBC TV, far more people in the UK would have been able to watch this very important film about life on this planet along with other forms of wildlife. Or sadly does money now now count, so far less people are able to watch this very important film by David Attenborough and sadly that now seems to be case on this occasion in the UK.

David Attenborough and James Lovelock combined would form some sort of godlike being.

Petition to have a David Attenborough statue.

David is amazing.

Grande Sir David Attenborough...merecia um prémio Nobel!! Desde que o comecei a ver ...tão empolgante é mesmo um inspirador ...O respeito pelas espécies, pela natureza, qualquer um fica com a imagem de que temos de lutar e defender a nossa Terra!! Este Senhor é um líder...

Sir David has it ‘right on the money’ - humanity is causing a ‘bang’ of environmental destruction and Chernobyl is emblematic of the issue. We - all of us - must act and now.

I had a conversation about politics recently and someone who I thought was 'on my side' was asking me really difficult, seemingly confrontational questions in a way that someone with polar opposite views might. My initial reaction was to feel defensive, but then I realised he was actually just asking questions that forced me to answer difficult questions in a way that strengthened my argument and better showed where I was coming from. Maybe it's the same thing here. Maybe the interviewer is asking the questions of the opposite side in order to show how strong his position is.

Is it only me that gets bothered by the colour grading of the interview?

I do agree that we need to cut back on fossil fuel, but shaming people who ride a plane is just pure madness. I do think Greta is a great person, but the movement of shaming people who ride a plane for work is just not wise.

is it just my monitor or is that hair rather funky....?
