David Attenborough is worried. Why? Because we’re destroying animal and plant life across the planet. The leading cause of this biodiversity loss is land clearing. And the leading cause of deforestation? Animal farming – especially for beef. Find out how our appetite for meat is stripping the planet bare and why this biodiversity loss has David Attenborough so worried.

I appreciated the honeybees part. Ive only ate plants all my life and raise and love my honeybees. I treat them very well and without them i could not pollinate my foods. Taking care and building homes for them protects them.

David Attenborough is currently a semi vegetarian and has reduced his meat consumption to be very minimal when he does eat it. He’s done more for conservation than most. Seeing the scale of what humans are doing to the planet and it’s inhabitants is unfathomable. We can all do something to slow it down, but will never stop it entirely.

Its Sheer Hypocrisy how can a Wildlife Conservationists Consume Meat
All his Life for 75+Years he relished Meat Served on His Plate and Now Suddenly get worried about Biodiversity.
He has confessed his love for Meat esp Veal, and Alsakan
Wild Salmon...
Same is With Jane Goodall.

brilliant, definitely sharing :) one other thing you could have included is the IPCC recommendation to move to a plant based diet to mitigate climate change.
