Please watch the 8 minute video presented by Sir David Attenborough to explain what is concerning him about our wonderful planet.

1. Reduce and replace all fossil fuels with renewable energy like wind turbines and solar panels.

2. Grow food more carefully and reduce the amount of meat that humans eat

3. Manage and look after the oceans so that they are not polluted and are healthy again

4. Encourage nature like plants and animals in all places
