- Greta Thunberg and Sir David Attenborough met for the first time (via Skype as they did not want to add to their carbon footprints) to discuss the climate crisis and share their thoughts on how to make an environmental impact.
Greta, who spoke to Sir David from Stockholm, guest edited the BBC's Today programme on Monday 30 December. The full podcast is available via the BBC Sounds app.
I love how grateful they are of each other. They compliment each other in their work. Greta is all about a call to arms and plays on the heartstrings of the older generation and the love they have for their children and grandchildren and David Attenborough shows us images of what we're fighting for and why the work is worth it. They're both equally as important for these dramatic times and will both be remembered in history books.
This actually made me cry. They both selflessly want to better the world for everyone and it is frustrating that the same people they are trying to help are the ones that do not open their eyes to this imminent danger.
Climates have been changing for millions of years fact!
The sea has risen at least 300 metres.
Thats all before man and modern industry.
Our priority must be reducing plastics for the safety of wildlife.
@@km4089 Of course climate has changed in the past but not at this speed. This changing climate is man made!
David is not selfless he travels about the world oblivious.
@@victorschwanberg
Totally disagree, even top scientist can't say it, as there is absolutely no definite proof. 40 years ago apparently we were predicted to be going into the next ice age as we had several bad winters.
The governments like to frighten people so they accept green Taxes.
Yes industry and fumes etc pollutes the air but not the planets weather.
It's a big issue in the UK because we're often under the jet stream and we're a little island in the middle of the sea, hence the unpredictable weather.
Most gases come from volcanos anyway.
@@km4089 You have a total right to disagree but you are wrong. Most scientists, probably more than 95% agree that climate change is changing the worlds climate and we do not have many years left to do anything about it.
Absolutely love Sir David, he is an international treasure.
I would love to meet and get to spend time with him.
What an honour and privilege that would be.
Most loved man in Britain 🇬🇧
Definitely
@@sekeriyasharif6593 maybe even the world
I would personally rather a BIBOC/POC meet her rather than you
@Stephan Kopper shut up
Sir David is so humble although he has decades of experiences
National Treasure.
He's not a scientist he is like most of us just normal people with a passion for natural world like me loving my cat, he is a good role model for our younger generations and past generation too on how to react cooperate with our natural world
Hes a great role model. A very good example of how passion and curiosity about our world is good if not necessary part of life. Also hes a scientist, with a degree from cambridge in natural sciences. He hasnt studied climate science all of his life. Yet holds a good education in science which helps to understand the problem of climate change.

Cats actually decimate New Zealand and Austrailia 😂, cat owners in my side of the world are bastards who are contributing directly to the end of our native species.
Her answers and questions seem construct in a way that it almost seems rehearsed. She’s only a child. And to speak with such a man is an honour.
I can’t imagine a world without these two wonderful people
I can, non-existence as we would have burnt the world
A better world, Muhawawa
Wow what would we do without two puppets of the Elite disseminating propaganda
i can without 1
david no, greta not so sure...
just wanted to write something positive here.
Should've just let them both conversate without a moderator, it would've been even more magical.
I'm with this girl all the way. She so right.. something has to be done Quick before too late. I wish her well an hope she carries on with it👍♥️♥️
Surely you jest.
We already know that climate change is going on that's a basic idea told by a basic little girl. How can we solve it?
@@yessir2514 That is a very good question! my honest opinion: let's start ourselves, the way we live. I'm not here to attack anyone just to express my opinion on starting with little changes is what is left to do.. doing our best on trying at least one sustainable lifestyle, zero waste for example. If we can't pay for organic foods or have the money to use an alternative energy source, or don't even have access to it.. let's start with zero waste, being a little more conscious of the waste involved in the preparation of our food for example...
Guys, we are all in this together, of course like grandpa David was saying, there is a lot of work to be done on the political side of the equation, but that doesn't mean we can't do anything... we are all habitants of this planet and we can choose, do a 30 min research online on zero waste and try to start with only one step..
Greta is doing her best and luckily she is getting the attention "that climate change" has been seeking for over 20 years and now hopefully more people will be taking action.
@@kareliallerenamontoya3512 I respectfully disagree, her parents use her to promote their little political campaign. Since early 2000s we are already told that this is happening and we should reduce our carbon consumption.
Meanwhile, this green summit calls for politicians across the globe often, thus increasing the use of jet fuel from their private jets to lecture workers in their SUVs about carbon footprint, if they really cared about climate change they would've known this.
The great barrier reef is bleached white now, I'm pissed aswell. But I believe that this problem is solved with pioneers and engineers not activists.
But what is she doing a lot of bla bla
This is what intelligence and humility looks like in two entirely different generations.
Sir David Attenborough & Greta Thunberg, a wise old Man who has been headlining nature bringing manys attention to nature & how robustly vicious this World can be to maintain survival " do you remember this documentary back in the day" & rightfully knighted by Her Majesty, now in order to bring you all more to your senses a young lady who stepped up & now as a disciple has highlighted the plight of the consequences of our actions. I salute you both
@Tone Loc There are scams everywhere for taxes, the urge to make money anywhere gives the opportunity for taxes, the people behind this are exceptionally clever cute & cunning, these people can create wars turning just about anyone against anyone with ease, I prefer to concentrate on what makes humanity unique & our bond to each other because we reflect more happiness & a healthier relationship with this planet which bares our future offspring. If you have ever seen the psi fi movie "The Edge of Tomorrow" just a similar likeness to what is here. Global warming is real & we can do something about this & we are strength in unity & can counter this, individually we are cannon fodder but still effective. Not everyone is good but there is something good about everyone. We will prevail, a much more placid remarkable determined spirit is emerging within us, our reflection of our attitudes will profoundly cement our bonds to earth & each other.
@Tone Loc Greetings, no offence whatsoever for the naive remark, hostilities & conflict will become a thing of the past, there is so much embedded within so many of us only a global repentance would rid us of this, someone will always remind us of why we should feel miserable or adhere to some plan like your aware of " 5 mile exclusion" our minds can be manipulated so please dont be offended, extreme intelligence is at work but thankfully our loving hearts is guiding us well, this is Faith. I dont know what the outcome will be but know its definitely for the benefit of us as a species & our relationship to Earth, its its own process so dont think negative of the outcome, none of us will ever see that continuous process, we living now & thats why we call it the present 🎁 & award gifts.
We will live better than now but we have been worse, technology comes from knowledge & that comes from within so chill, learn to meditate & appreciate everything because your life is your expression, just dont ruin this planet or support anything in that direction.
Breath in Peace & exhale with Love.
HOW DARE YOU!
I am going to be like him
She's doing so much more than she knows. Can't wait to see all there is to come.
(edit - No stress. Just be yourself. You'll be fine.)

I am convinced that David is god
He's right up there

A servant of God
If Only!
if you read his biography you will learn what happened. He is not a god. It is only that you worship your Television.
It is generation gap (but damn, how inspiring). It's revolution. I don't thing it ever happened before. Somehow i feel proud of being human. Sir David gives Greta his knowledge. She does much more than any teenager would do.
We as humans die, we don't know it yet (or don't accept it).
I hope we have a chance... to make humans great again and save our world.
guardians of mother nature:)
They're such an inspiration to us all. I think we should be honoured to have these 2 humans on our side.
he refuses to hand over an uninhabitable planet to this little wonder and she will not accept it Love them both
Greta is a Swedish and international treasure. It's not even about her. It's about the message. These disbelievers (fact-fearer as I call them) who try to attack Greta are just sad, despicable cretins.
Jonas Albin, I don't fear facts, I despise lies. We aren't in the midst of a sixth mass extinction. In the last 500 years, we have had 953 species of plants and animals to go extinct. In every country except Zimbabwe, the life expectancy has risen by at least 15 years in the last 50 years. We have never before had such great crop yields. Wildfires are down by 24% worldwide since 1998. The Arctic ice extent is almost at its 1981-2000 average. Greenland is gaining billions of tons of ice each day.
Those are just a few facts that no one seems to believe.
@@touchtoomuch1000 and you're basing those "facts" on what? Please provide sources, any idiot can throw "stats" out.
Also, you're lying
Jonas Albin, I'm still waiting for an apology.
Jonas Albin, I'm waiting for your response. Did you find any discrepancies in my links? Respond or you will be considered a coward.
Jonas Albin, Does this mean you are one of those "fact-fearers"?
This is the most natural conversation I've ever Heard.
Is that a word joke?
😂😂
So David and Greta, both have high quality cameras pointed at their faces and they are still talking over the web cam😂
Can anyone recommend to me a decent solar panel and battery set. I just want to start with an affordable price. A small set up and build from there. I can't afford the full makeover. I'm in the UK.
I feel such gratitude to both Greta and Sir David. We are lucky to have them in our world! It has inspired me to write a song with music called "Climate Crisis". I shall be uploading this to my CZcams channel called Simon Luvs Guitar just before Cop 26.
It is such a frustrating conundrum for me to think about. I made my living in the modern industrial world, flying big jets all over the planet burning millions of pounds of hydrocarbons in the form of jet fuel directly into our upper atmosphere. As a younger man, I honestly did not know it was wrong. It has to do with how we are taught, and how we view social responsibility. In America, person liberty and freedom are prized WAY beyond any sense of social responsibility, much less responsibility to our only planet - Earth. We must somehow quickly transform our methods of living away from a self centered winner take all kind of capitalism into a fully socialized model of the world where the collective good outweighs every all other considerations. Organic life must be views as equal, and not separate from human life. I can now visibly see our planet unraveling rapidly, and I feel partially responsible for it. Thank you David and thank you Greta. Two of the world's finest humans.
Too late, people don t stand going from horse to donkey. And the so many chinese and indians want the same, and have their reasons.
The wisest man on earth
youtube commentators are the dumbest ppl in the entire world
With all the rethink about statues and the validity of the character behind them, I can think of no one who deserves a statue in the center of London more than Sir David Attenborough. A hero of this planet.
For real
God bless them both!,David Attenborough is top man legend and pure gentleman!
We need this kind of people to rule our country, not bloody Borris Johnson
Boris Johnson dad was a leader in The EU for environmental issues. "Johnson has previously worked at the World Bank, has a great interest in the environment and was the Head of Prevention of Pollution Division at the European Commission from 1973 to 1979. He is a trustee of the Gorilla Organisation and a board member of Plantlife International. In 1983 he received the RSPCA Richard Martin Award for Outstanding Services to animal welfare, and in 1984 he received the Greenpeace Award for Outstanding Services to the Environment. He was for many years an ambassador for the UNEP Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals based in Bonn, Germany.
He has published a number of books dealing with environmental issues and nine novels, including The Commissioner, which was made into a 1998 film starring John Hurt. In 1962 he won the Newdigate Prize for Poetry." That's from wiki.
@@Natashahoneypot Really? I didn't know that
A wee puppet of the globalists.Attenborough is a liar.BBC pervert,no doubt.
I recon no one should ‘rule’ the country, but we should all have a say 😁 every human and animal gets a say wether they are rich poor while black or whatever! Come together as communities and show love and compassion for eachother! Instead of what we do now which is lock ourselves in our brick houses and try and avoid our neighbours 😂
@SvenneHumor why
I like how they are both great full for each other
jeff richards show brought me here
I have always loved David’s movements in helping nature and want to continue in his steps
We all need to help👍
Of course they're using the Inferior Skype instead of discord
It's same thing

"Climate change was hardly mention in the UK election" that sad to hear from the man who dedicated all his life to make us aware about the huge problem we are in.
I hope she read her lines without any issues. Some people could be angry.
Two absolute heroes! This was lovely to watch
Two intelligent people having a reasonable conversation. Rare.
And the movie continues.
This was such a fantastiskt video, David is so proud off Greta and Greta is so happy to meet him:) lovley thank you
Greta has touched a nerve in all of us whether we are naturalists or not and in a deeper sense we may be facing our own extinction as well as a mass extinction of other species.
god and mother nature meet for the first time
Indeed a tearful moment! Awe-inspiring video! For me, as a dedicated conservationist, this video gives me more hope to fight and awake the world!
When you can’t work out who is the most bonkers in the room.
This is nice because she is being ready to talk and they both changed the world differently because there differently people and that changes are world for us
Anyone remember that 40 to 50 years ago we had about 99% (felt like it, anyway) more insects?
With more food to go around after sorting out earth's problems we can solve poverty and may solve other problems. If you have netflix go watch his documentary on natflex "Life on our planet"
It sounds less formal at the end of the discussion 🙂
"Nobody is talking about it in UK, except You."
Well I saw tousands of people organising Extinction Rebellion. 🙌
Yes they are great
2 of my favorite people on the planet!! We are starting to see more and more the negative impact of fossil fuels. We need to buy environmentally friendly products and put Big Oil/Big Coal out of business!!! If the government won't stop the corporations, the people can.
David Is a great man,in my opinion it’s a shame the worlds leaders cannot see this and act on his warnings,we have hit the tipping point
World leaders don’t give a damn about the world they only care about themselves and their power
Heroes! ❤️❤️❤️
I feel like he is passing on the torch!
Sir David is 77 years elder than Greta Thunberg.

Mate, your on youtube....
Shouldn't have read the comments !
Who shut down greta voice
And why ¡ ?
I've always said people are smart but not brilliant to be brilliant you would have to be able to look further into the future than only tomorrow and next year.. without thinking of only benefiting yourself and your circles
Greta meets David => Greta David. Larry David's cousin. We can tolerate both, but the heat waves just keep coming!
A true legend and a legend in the making.
Generations apart, but both trailblazers . ✌🏼👏🏼🌏
She is a prodigy.
Omg both of my role models ! Love them both ❤️
The Earth will be fine, this is about saving ourselves isn't it.
And many people and animals will suffer severly.
Keep it up!’ Time is something we can’t get back on this if we don’t act now...
We all need to help with our. Carbon footprint 👍
OMG I looooove that old white man!!! It’s really hard for me to watch a documentary about the natural world without his voice!!! I would love to take care of him when he get older and needs it frfr lol
What about poor people
we need to do both. most developing countries do need to use fossil fuels to develop, but it's the rich countries that produce the vast majority of carbon.
Old man, young female, BBC ? I'm just making an innocent observation 😯
Ironically wea are all watching this using electronic devices which we charge using fossil fuel.
Switch to low consumption electronic device, charge with solar cell or windmill powered electric motors and store electricity in long life battery.
Greta makes me feel really bad about the type of person I was at age 16.
No merecemos éste sistema de vida....
Hmmm...
Wonderful both x

I LOVE YOU

Sir David Maybe you should look at history and society today. Wasnt it your Royal family government and not just uk other super powers as well that actually caused this mess. Just think if they would of left people alone and not try to rule other countries and indoctrinate there beliefs on their own ppl but also others we wouldnt be in this mess. We wouldnt have currency we wouldnt be thinking about material things. As you look at the world today its all been indoctrinated. People today want to have a house a car a steady income and savings yet they dont realise that they are actually contributing to the problem by thinking that way they dont realise that thats a form of indoctrination. Imagine if the world just stopped for one just one day were no one went to work. That would be amazing to see I would wonder what would happen if it carried on for a week would govts or groups start forcing ppl to work would they enslave society would they use military action I just wonder.
Everyone is away from work and the world HAS technically stopped for a while.

RSS Sir David Attenborough was docked near me for months, lit up like a Christmas tree. Just saying.
i love how david uses the new macbook and greta uses the old one
Both using the very latest Apple gear I see. So much for sustainability and using older products. She’s changed nothing.
