«Breaking News» David Attenborough tells leaders at Davos to tackle climate change before damage cannot be fixed

Sir David Attenborough has warned that the age of the 'Garden of Eden' is over and has called for a plan to urgently tackle climate change.

The veteran broadcaster, 92, used an award acceptance speech at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland, on Monday to urge business leaders and governments to come up with 'practical solutions'.

The Blue Planet and Dynasties narrator said he was born during the Holocene period, a time of stability that let human societies prosper.

British naturalist, documentary maker and broadcaster David Attenborough gave a stark warning to leaders at Davos in Switzerland

The naturalist told the WEF:  ‘I was born during the Holocene - the 12,000 year period of climatic stability that allowed humans to settle, farm, and create civilisations.

‘In the space of my lifetime, all that has changed.’

The 92-year-old said the world is changing at a rapid pace and urged business leaders and politicians to 'get on with practical tasks.' 

He added: ‘The Holocene has ended. The Garden of Eden is no more.

‘We have changed the world so much that scientists say we are in a new geological age.

‘We need to move beyond guilt or blame, and get on with the practical tasks at hand,' as reported by The Guardian.

On a more optimistic note he said he thought humans could create a different world. 

He added: 'We can create a world with clean air and water, unlimited energy and fish stocks that will sustain us well into the future. But to do that, we need a plan.'

Sir David, who was given a Crystal Award for his leadership in environmental stewardship, outlined how UN decisions on climate change, sustainable development and a new deal for nature would shape the future.

'What we do now and in the next few years will profoundly affect the next few thousand years,' he added.

Sir David will take to the WEF stage again on Tuesday to be interviewed by the Duke of Cambridge.

William will discuss the urgent challenges facing the next generation of environmental leaders with Sir David, who he has described as having 'the single most important impact in my conservation thinking'.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
