David Attenborough: 'The Planet Can't Support Billions Of Meat-Eaters'

“We must change our diet. The planet can’t support billions of meat-eaters,” he continued. “If we had a mostly plant-based diet we could increase the yield of the land. We have an urgent need for free land… Nature is our biggest ally.”

Attenborough is best known for his time with the BBC Natural History Unit and his presentation of the Life collection, in particular.

He has been particularly vocal about environmental concerns in the last decade and frequently speaks out against climate change. Attenborough has also highlighted the impact of meat consumption on several occasions and first spoke about avoiding it in his own diet in 2017.

Speaking to the BBC last year, Attenborough said that he couldn’t remember the last piece of red meat he ate. He added that while adopting a plant-based diet may be tricky, it is important for the health of the planet.
