linda wilkins 10/07/2020 11:02 AMI watch David Attenborough: A Life on Our Planet last night. First of all, it made me cry when I saw the deforestation that has happened in David's life time. Secondly, I was struck by the statement that the planet will survive, but humans won't. How ironic would that be that we have caused our own extinction.
