david attenborough like all the other multi millionairs flying around the world hundreds of times his carbon footprint must be horrendous but still has the cheek to come on the telly spouting on about the climate through burning fossil fuels what a cheek

Can’t expect him to walk at his age
If he HAS to do onsite filming abroad then he will have to fly unless he can go by sea which will also contribute to his carbon footprint.
I agree there is a lot of flights to go to face to face meetings and so on that could be done via online like Zoom, Teams and so on by some of these people telling us to cut our carbon footprint.

Seriously? How else is he going to do his job? If he is doing a programme about the wildlife of Borneo, what's he supposed to do? Take the bus?

drop in the ocean compared to the squillions of holiday makers jetting off for a week on a beach somewhere .
if he goes on a std scheduled flight , it was going there anyway so no harm done at all

Not sure how he is able to do his job without air travel ......
I would imagine his total contribution to climate change has been very minimal compared to many other individuals.
At least he is highlighting the issue.

He talks a lot of sense, and his wildlife programmes are fantastic,
His contributions to this world are excellent imo.

He has to bring the plight of animals and others to us somehow. Yeah, private jets maybe a step too far but commercial airlines?
I don’t know how else he can carry out the research he does without flying.
Still think that research vessel should have been called Boaty McBoatface though.

Did he rebore your missus or something?

I gave up watching him years Ago , I have no issues with the man.
I just don’t like the way he makes me feel like it’s all my fault

There was a disclosure some years back that much of his content was filmed in the University of Bristol
I knew his cameraman, and a technician at the Uni who both confirmed it...

This was my understanding too and that frailty meant he rarely travelled abroad on projects any longer
