Good choice, and also a great way for the organisation to get out of a tough PR situation. Literally no-one dislikes David Attenborough.

- danieltillett 10y agoI think there are some on the right that do due to his support of science.
- lagadu 10y agoI dislike DA for being involved, even if involuntarily, in the McBoatFace fiasco :) OK, I don't but that would ruin the joke.
- stevetrewick 10y agoBlack swan. I dislike him. He's a staunch proponent of population control and patron of Population Matters a group which amongst other things campaigns for net zero immigration. His undeniably impressive professional oeuvre has a carbon footprint like a charcoal yeti making some of his environmental preachiness quite hypocritical. I still like his programs, though.
- orthecreedence 10y agoCurious, I can understand not liking him for supporting/speaking at an organization you dislike, but what's wrong with the idea of population control? So many of our problems could be fixed by limiting the population of the human race. To be clear, I'm not proposing a solution for doing so nor am I saying the ends would justify the means for how this is reached. However can you not agree that climate change, pollution, resource shortages, etc are caused by having too many people on this planet? This is especially true if people in first-world countries want to continue their lives of excess. The only reason to keep growing in population is to add fuel to the economic fire, so to speak. This is not a sustainable trend though.
