David Attenborough turns 100 years old on the 8th of May.

He is a human who has spent his time loving the diversity of life on this planet. His documentaries helped emphasise the biodiversity crisis while also infectiously spreading this love of other species.

My partner and I are thinking of having a small, gentle event on the day to recognise his life. Maybe a walk with friends, taking moments to stop and acknowledge the creatures around us.

Want to join us, wherever you are in the world?

@ephemeral Oh wow 8th of May is also when WWII ended in Europe. What a prestigious date.

Definitely sounds like a good idea and a man worth celebrating. Rather than just commemorating those who have walked this earth before us
