Sir David Attenborough has said we need to ‘rewild the world’ by planting more forests and switch to a vegetarian diet in order to save the Earth. Speaking ahead of his new Netflix documentary film A Life On Our Planet, the 94-year-old naturalist warned it ‘cannot support millions of meat eaters‘. Calling on his decades of experience chronicling the natural world, he called for action to be taken immediately to save the global ‘pristine’ ecosystem that is ‘heading for disaster‘. The film, which will be released in the cinemas on September 28 before appearing on Netflix in the Autumn, will explore the defining moments of Sir David’s lifetime and the devastating changes he has witnessed. Sir David Attenborough has said we need to ‘rewild the planet’ and switch to a vegetarian diet in order to save the Earth. Speaking ahead of the launch, he said: ‘We must radically reduce the way we farm. We must change our diet. The planet can’t support billions of meat eaters. ‘If we had a mostly plant-based diet we could increase the yield of the land. We have an urgent need for free land. Forests are fundamental to recovery – bio-centres of diversity. ‘The wilder and more diverse the more effective. We must grow palm and soya on deforested lands. Nature is our biggest ally. ‘The living world is our unique marvel,’ he said. ‘The natural world is fading. This film is my vision of our future – our greatest mistake. ‘If we act now, we can put it right. This pristine of ecosystems is heading for disaster. Our imprint is global.

QUESTION: IF THIS ECOSYSTEM IS STILL PRISTINE AND THE PLANET IS STILL AROUND AND STILL ONLY HEADING FOR DISASTER 8,000 YEARS AFTER WE CAME OUT OF OUR CAVES IN THE FOREST TO START HUMAN CIVILIZATION IN THE NEOLITHIC REVOLUTION OF THE HOLOCENE CLIMATE OPTIMUM, WHY DO WE NEED TO GO BACK TO OUR CAVES IN THE FOREST TO SAVE THE PLANET?
