This Is My Witness Statement

Lyrics

I am David Attenborough, and I'm 93. This is my witness statement. I've had the most extraordinary life. It's only now that I appreciate how extraordinary. I've been lucky enough to spend my life exploring the wild places of our planet. I've traveled to almost every part of the globe. Wherever I went, there was wilderness. Sparkling coastal seas, vast forests, immense grasslands But that distant world is changing. The way we humans live on Earth is sending it into a dеcline. If we don't take action, thе collapse of our civilizations and the extinction of much of the natural world is on the horizon. In this world, a species can only thrive when everything else around it thrives, too. We can solve the problems we now face by embracing this reality. If we take care of nature, nature will take care of us
