'Never has there been a more important time to invest in our own wildlife'
The naturalist and environmentalist highlighted the challenges to insects, birds, whales and more in the opening episode of his new series, Wild Isles.
“Never has there been a more important time to invest in our own wildlife to try and set an example for the rest of the world and restore our once wild isles for future generations.” “Wild Isles is – and always was - a five part series and does not shy away from environmental content. Together they have launched a major campaign to encourage everyone to come together to stop the destruction on nature.
The three charities are calling on people to show their love of nature by committing to ‘Go Wild Once a Week’.They also called on leaders and businesses must act now to implement a crisis response to the nature emergency to build on the promises they have made to halt the destruction of nature and speed its recovery.
“Huge numbers of animals, birds and habitats have been quite literally wiped out in our own lifetimes and we must now accept that without urgent and collective action, our economy, the climate and the stability of future generations living in our wild isles all face a ticking timebomb.
