In a new Netflix documentary, ‘A Life On Our Planet’, Sir David Attenborough will urge people to consider changing their diets in order to save our planet.
He is quoted as saying, “If we had a mostly plant-based diet we could increase the yield of the land. We have an urgent need for land… Nature is our biggest ally.”
He goes on to say; “Half of fertile land on Earth is now farmland, 70 per cent of birds are domestic, majority chickens. We are one-third of animals on Earth. This is now our planet run by – and for – humans... If we continue on our current course the damage will be eclipsed by the damage that comes next.” |
