Next time I hear about how economic prosperity and education will help stop environment destruction, i will point to Norway - one of the few countries that still allows whaling and now this against all scientific advice reuters.com/world/europe/nor…

Hello? Is the forest department waiting for that auspicious moment when things will reach peak confusion and conflict with crowds and this large predator before tranquillising and moving it away from human habitation? ndtv.com/cities/tiger-sleepi…

How can it NOT matter that our planet is boiling? Extreme heat and extreme weather events like flooding are causing unimaginable damage, stress, loss, disease and suffering for people. India is also witnessing ALL this and more. At such a time doesn’t it make SENSE to protect the systems that bring balance? That help mitigate temperature rise? To conserve what is remaining of our forests? If anything, keep adding more forest cover? Do we need our politicians to understand how India will descend into hell and become uninhabitable if we rob her of her forests? I hope not. This is a sincere urgent appeal to all Members of Rajya Sabha please #SaveIndianForests 🙏🏻🌳 Please vote AGAINST the Forest Conservation Amendment Bill 2023.

Utterly disgusting and pathetic . Right now with all of the biodiversity and clarinet challenges - we really don’t need to be slaughtering our apex predators for sport.

The Great American Shark Slaughter. Excellent article and an absolute shame that this is allowed. These animals belong to the world and not to any one country. Plus Apex predators who keep our oceans healthy. thenation.com/article/enviro…

This just keeps breaking my heart over and over. Why couldn’t they just have left the bird with the person he loves?

Spirit, the beautiful black leopard from my film The Animal Communicator passed away. Rest in beauty and peace beloved. Some animals change your life and he was one of them. Here’s a 12 minute clip featuring him from my film youtu.be/wL--zc1KIxk

We keep saying we need to leave a better world for our children - and we must that’s not the debate , but what about leaving better children for the world ? What we teach them, what they observe, what we make them believe is important - that’s the children we will leave.

How can anything we do to decarbonise be called renewables if they are still entirely dependent on an extractive economy - still mining for rare metals, especially deep sea mining. And what’s the point of removing carbon if we decimate biodiversity?

Nearly drowning as a child made me terrified of water. It took me 47 years to turn my fear to wonder and in my 50th year I conquered another fear and learnt to scuba. Now I have freed my amphibious soul. If I can do it believe me any of you can.
