Sometimes it’s hard not to feel glum. As I write this it’s a wet autumn day outside, not one of those glorious, crisp mornings where you can bask in the golden glow of nature (see page 6 for that), just a miserable, wet and cold one! And it’s becoming clear that not only do we have a hard winter ahead of us but that the world has changed forever. But perhaps this doesn’t have to be a negative.
Take David Attenborough’s new film, A Life on Our Planet, (see more on page 23) which has been described as ‘brutal’ and ‘depressing’ but also as a testament of hope and a call for action from a man with a plan.
We’re over the initial shock of the pandemic, there’s no more clapping the NHS and it’s back to business for many, but that doesn’t mean that we have to forget its lessons.
