This from the Telegraph (UK) which doesn't require registration –

In a special event at the Edinburgh International Television Festival to mark 60 years of the Natural History Unit at BBC Studios, Sir David, 91, said: "I spend a lot of time wringing my hands and saying how dreadful it is, and how this forest has been obliterated, and that sea has been polluted and whatever." But he went on: "I am encouraged more than I have been, somehow."

And from the Time of London. you may have to register to read the whole article but it's free –

Now Sir David Attenborough, 91, has suggested that he is more optimistic than ever about the future of the planet. The naturalist said that he had detected a “worldwide shift” in attitudes to conservation, with politicians and voters in previously sceptical nations appreciating the need to act. “I am encouraged more than I have been for some time,” he told the Edinburgh International Television Festival yesterday.

Let’s hope he continues to keep us out of all harmful schemes like that.
