What the petition asks
Recommend to H. M. the Queen that David Attenborough be created a Lord because of his lifelong service to nature and education.
David Attenborough has been a constant for generations, educating young and old about the natural world and most recently about the dangers and effects of climate change. He has done more than any other person in the world to bring the wonders of nature into our homes via the medium of television. His spectacular programmes are always complemented by his own unique, beautiful narration. His service to the education of the UK, and wider world, deserves the highest recognition.
