An Evening with Sir David Attenborough, 2015 | Royal Society of Biology

In May 2015 Sir David Attenborough Hon FSB captivated an audience of almost 500 guests at the Science Museum in London and helped the Society of Biology to raise nearly £20,000 to support its charitable aims.
In conversation with TV paleopathologist Professor Alice Roberts FSB, Sir David spoke of the importance of natural history filmmaking in connecting people to the plight of the world’s biodiversity and climate.

Sir David is an example to all of us !He has taught and entertained generations of us with his wildlife adventures . He has behaved with honor and dignity and he has shown us how important it is to treat our wildlife and their natural habitats with respect and consideration. He is the GOLD STANDARD for natural history documentaries. He acknowledges that nature is beautiful but also brutal. Sir David Attenborough is a treasure . Long may he reign!!!!!

A human being that has changed the minds of millions of people on our planet and helped countless animals from becoming exstinct no doubt. He has given us the wonderful opportunity to observe the planets weird and amazing creatures. Life on earth has been my favourite pastime with Sir David Attenbouragh and I think he is just a superior human being.

Amazing to hear from the beginning how much we have learnt up to this point & how science has changed, wonderful stories from Sir David Attenborough

[@gentlemanjosh5903]

He's there with the lovely Alice Roberts and one of the things he's explained to her is that the oceans are the planet's environments he's most worried about and that makes perfect sense cos they are the world's most unexplored habitats cos they are so deep so you can hardly blame him for being so worried about the oceans.

What a wonderful conversation

[@bluecollarguy67]

Geez, did you see all of those people in the audience who just had to pull out their cell phones and tablets once the guests were on stage and the lights went down? Is it impossible for people to just enjoy the moment and not have to record some portion of it for some later time when they will forget that they even have it stored on their phone or tablet?
