Naturfilmaren som charmade en hel värld, blev en av planetens kändaste röster och med åren en hårdnackad krigare för klimatet. Nya avsnitt från P3 ID hittar du först i Sveriges Radio Play. När Sir David Attenborough föds (1926) är inte ens TV-mediet uppfunnet. Med en prestigefylld utbildning från Cambridge börjar David Attenborough på BBC och är med och utvecklar framtiden för TV. Efter en inledande karriär som producent blir David Attenborough snart en älskad programledare som med sin kärleksfulla entusiasm för naturen och planetens invånare, både adlats och röstats fram till Storbritanniens mest betrodda man.Med åren har Sir David Attenborough blivit allt mer engagerad i klimatfrågan och har enligt klimatforskaren Johan Rockström blivit en viktig röst. – Han har fått en nästan obeskrivligt tung roll som en röst för besinning, men också röst för visdom och strategi. Att förvalta naturen som en väg till välbefinnande för mänskligheten på jorden. Han är på det sättet en oerhört viktig ambassadör för mänsklighetens framtid på jorden.P3 ID om David Attenborough är ett program om berättarglädje, tv-mediets utveckling och människans relation till planeten.

If two people could combat our growing urban disconnection, it is Adam White and Andrée Davies of Davies White Limited. I met them at our first Biophilic Design Conference at the Barbican, and immediately warmed to their infectious passion for better landscape design. Design which helps reimagine spaces from playgrounds to hospitals through a beautiful and playful biophilic lens, pulling on our emotional responses to nature. They construct, if you will, beautiful narratives of human-nature coexistence. Instead of viewing landscapes as static backdrops, they help encourage us to understand them as dynamic, living systems that actively shape human experience and ecological health. I think it's the creativity I love most about their work. The balance of science, planning and artistry. Their approach is rooted in a deep understanding of ecological systems and human psychology. With projects ranging from micro-forest playgrounds to hospital gardens, each is designed to restore our biophilic fundamental relationship with the natural world. Take their recent West London micro-forest playground project. By densely planting trees and creating intricate ecological landscapes, they're not merely designing a play area, but constructing a living classroom. The project embodies their core belief: that understanding nature begins with immersive, tactile experiences. Those of us who live and breathe biophilic design, this philosophy aligns with scientific research. Studies consistently demonstrate that exposure to natural environments reduces stress, enhances cognitive function, and promotes emotional well-being. Adam himself references Florence Williams' "The Nature Fix", which explores how nature can make us "happier, healthier, and more creative". Also, their approach supports the positive economic argument for biophilic design. Their pocket park project in London demonstrated that nature-rich spaces can increase property values and biodiversity simultaneously. Plus, a collaboration with Anglian Water explored how housing developments could integrate resilient, nature-focused landscapes, and they are advocating a new “Resilient Garden” rating, which like the EPC rating on a house, could add value to a property if reported along with a house sale. I think this is a brilliant idea. It will get real estate developers and property owners totally thinking differently about their homes and land. This "resilient garden and landscape accreditation scheme" would be an ecological equivalent to energy ratings for buildings. This could revolutionise how we value and integrate natural systems into our built environment Policy is slowly catching up. The introduction of a Natural History GCSE this September (which they both, along with others, including Mary Colwell I interviewed a couple of years back) represents a significant milestone. "If children don't understand nature, they won't appreciate it, and if they don't appreciate it, they won't protect it," Adam recalls Sir David Attenborough telling him – a statement that has become a guiding principle for their work. "We don't stop playing because we grow old. We grow old because we stop playing," Adam reminds us, and their hospital design interventions are creative, beautiful and indeed playful. By creating gardens with living elements like water pumps, rabbits, and carefully selected native plants, they transform clinical spaces into healing ecosystems. These actively support patient recovery. As climate change accelerates, landscape architecture becomes a critical tool for resilience. Their designs are also adaptive systems that can mitigate environmental challenges while supporting human and ecological well-being. What I love about their work is that they challenge the notion that sustainable design is prohibitively expensive. By using creative, low-cost interventions like raised planting containers and willow pods, they demonstrate that ecological design can be accessible and scalable. I have to call out one specific example of climate resilience from their work, and that is at Nene Park Trust in Cambridgeshire. They used swales to manage water collection during heavy rainfall. These swales are designed to be both functional and interactive, with bridges and stepping stones that children can use to cross them. Their conscious approach to help with water management through strategically designed swales, planting of resilient vegetation that can thrive in changing conditions and creating a playful landscape that serves both ecological and recreational purposes really deserves visiting and using as an exemplar of best practice. They've been working with the park trust for 15 years, and when they revisited the site recently, they were impressed by how the planting had thrived in conditions that might typically challenge other landscapes. Andrée shared that we need a better understanding "nature's time" - recognising that landscapes develop and improve over years, with plants establishing and becoming more robust over time. This approach is inherently climate-resilient, as it focuses on creating adaptable, living systems rather than static, rigid designs. As the next generation of designers emerges – armed with natural history education and a deep ecological consciousness – we hope we can anticipate even more transformative approaches to landscape design. The message is clear. Design is not about creating spaces for humans but creating spaces with humans as PART of a complex, interconnected ecological system. Biophilic landscape architecture is a powerful tool for healing our disconnection from the natural world.RHS Back to Nature - Design Engagement - https://www.davieswhite.co.uk/nature-play-workshop Davies White Ltd Landscape Architects - https://www.davieswhite.co.uk/ If you like this, please subscribe!Have you got a copy of the Journal?

In this episode of Before You Bloom, I sit down with Erna Walraven, one of Australia's first female zookeepers and the former Senior Curator at Taronga Zoo. Erna shares her trailblazing journey breaking barriers in a male-dominated industry, from facing sexism in the 1980s to leading the shift in zoos from entertainment to conservation.We explore her memoir, "Hear Me Roar," her encounters with Sir David Attenborough, and the powerful lessons she has learned from animals about family, resilience, and humanity. Erna's story is a fearless reminder of what it means to challenge the rules and carve your own path.Erna's story is one of resilience, feminism, and rewriting the rules. This conversation is equal parts eye-opening and inspiring, a reminder that the natural world holds lessons not just about animals, but about ourselves.Read Hear Me Roar : HERE

Charles and Jon talk with Rachel Ashegbofe Ikemeh, founder of the SW/Niger Delta Conservation Project. Rachel, a Nigerian conservationist and visionary, has built a team of almost 100 people working at the grassroots community level to save the wildlife of the Niger Delta. The delta, densely populated and home to oil and gas reserves, is one of the most degraded environments on the planet. It contains over half of the swamp forest in West and Central Africa and is the world's largest mangrove forest. But 95% of that forest has been lost in the past 15 years.Rachel describes her career and how she stumbled into conservation work despite the many obstacles she faced from a society where young women are expected to get married and have children and definitely not become biologists!She talks about some of the delta's many special mammals including critically endangered primates like the the Niger Delta Red Colobus that Rachel's team is bringing back from the brink of extinction with the help of local communities.And Rachel talks about some of the very many dangers she has faced working in this difficult area. She has run the gauntlet of everything from death threats to drowning and also had a very close encounter with an angry Elephant.For more information visit www.mammalwatching.com/podcastNotes: You can follow Rachel's team on Instagram here. And here is a short video, narrated by Sir David Attenborough, celebrating Rachel as a winner of the 2020 Whitley Awards for her work with Chimpanzees.

David Hill reviews Ocean: Earth's Last Wilderness by Sir David Attenborough and Colin Butfield published by Hachette

Over the past 100 years, oceans have progressed from being a complete mystery to being regarded as vital for our survival, according to Sir David Attenborough. Keith Scholey is an Emmy and Bafta award-winning natural history and environmental filmmaker who has worked with Sir David for 44 years. Keith directed Ocean with David Attenborough.

This week we head to the west coast of the UK to discover how our very own Celtic corvid, the red-billed chough, is woven into the culture and myths of these lands. In the news, we celebrate the amazing life and career of Sir David Attenborough as he enters his 99th year! All this and more. The cupboard is open, come on in!

Colin Bulfield, Executive Producer of the new film Ocean With Attenborough, talks about working with the celebrated broadcaster and filmmaker Sir David Attenborough on his latest project, an exploration of the vital importance of healthy oceans to our planet which is in cinemas around the country now. Current exhibitions at V&A Dundee and the British Library in London shed light on the history and future of garden design. Curator James Wylie and academic and author Becca Voelcker discuss how gardens reflect society, how they have influenced other fields such as art and philosophy, and what gardens might look like in 50 years time. And librettist Emma Jenkins and composer Toby Hession talk about how their new operetta for Scottish Opera and the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company, A Matter of Misconduct!, which is inspired by political scandals, the No.9 Downing Street press briefing room and classic British comedy from Hancock's Half Hour to The Thick of It.

After several days of commemoration events to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day, culminating in a memorial service today at Westminster Abbey, we're joined by Laura Clouting, Senior Curator at the Imperial War Museum, to explore why the historic event still holds importance in today's society and what we can learn from those who endured the Second World War. Plus, as Sir David Attenborough celebrates his 99th birthday, he releases a new film with possibly one of his most important messages to date. The London Standard's Culture writer, Vicky Jessop, joins us to tell us what we can expect from ‘Ocean'. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A powerful rallying cry to protect the world's oceans has been issued from Sir David Attenborough.His message features in a new film, Ocean with David Attenborough, which opens in cinemas across the world today.Plus, Owkin has launched K Navigator, an AI-powered research co-pilot designed to revolutionise biomedical science.They say the technology is an “agentic playground” where researchers can explore, refine, and validate a theory, therefore accelerating the quality and pace of their discoveries.According to the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Medicine, it takes around 12 years for a laboratory discovery to become an approved medicine. There is also a high failure rate.Tech and Science Daily spoke to Dr Ingo Ringshausen, a consultant at University College London Hospital who runs a research group for the Cancer Institute and—importantly—was also one of the first to test the technology.Also in this episode:Could Nasa switch up and launch to Mars as early as 2026?London NHS worker awarded £29,000 after being likened to Darth VaderIs Scotland home to the world's oldest football pitch?

They discuss what sort of advice Harry is being given and why, when it comes to doing a big interview, the golden rule is 'never go in hot'.Listen to the full extended version on BBC Sounds, where David and Simon also look at how Marks & Spencer responded to a cyber attack - and why saying nothing can sometimes be the best policy. Plus, what everyone in PR could learn from two of the great master communicators, Michelle Obama and Sir David Attenborough.Producer: Duncan Middleton Editor: Sarah Teasdale Executive Producer: William Miller Music by Eclectic Sounds A Raconteur Studios production for BBC Radio 4

Every year, the great migration sees hundreds of thousands of wildebeest, gazelles, zebras and antelopes migrate from the Serengeti plains in Tanzania to the Maasai Mara in Kenya, in search of water and juicy grass. But rising temperatures and unpredictable weather are changing this epic animal journey dramatically. It's the same for great white sharks, which are being spotted in areas where they'd never normally live.Tanzanian safari guide Neema Amos takes us into the Serengeti to explain why the wildebeest migration is so important. And shark expert Trisha Atwood reveals how these changes affect not just the animals, but our fight against climate change itself.Presenter Sophie Eastaugh is joined by: Neema Amos, Safari Guide in Tanzania Trisha Atwood, Associate Professor of Watershed Sciences at Utah State University Joseph Ogutu, Senior Statistician at University of HohenheimEmail us at theclimatequestion@bbc.comProducers: Sophie Eastaugh and Octavia Woodward Editors: Graihagh Jackson and Tom Bigwood Series Producer: Simon Watts Sound design and mixing: Tom Brignell Production Coordinator: Brenda BrownArchive from the Sir David Attenborough programme, ‘Wildebeest: The Super Herd', BBC Two, 2008This programme was first broadcast in March 2024

Telling a story is hard. Filming nature is even harder. That may be why, in the 1940s, Walt Disney productions leaned on movie magic to develop its True-Life Adventures nature documentary series. It built sets, shipped in animals from distant locales, and even made up facts. One lie looms larger than them all. It's haunted the film genre for generations with a question: From classics narrated by Sir David Attenborough to today's fast-paced animal content on YouTube, is what we're seeing real or fake? Prompted by a Reddit post, Endless Thread's Ben Brock Johnson and Dean Russell go down the rabbit hole — lemming hole? — of deception in nature documentaries. ***** Credits: This episode was produced by Dean Russell and Ben Brock Johnson. Mix and sound design by Emily Jankowski. The co-hosts are Ben Brock Johnson and Dean Russell.
