Decades of research have shown that nature heals us. 🌱
Spending time in nature can reduce anxiety and feelings of isolation, and protect our mental wellbeing. But studies show our connection to the natural world is declining, as urbanisation accelerates and green spaces disappear.
The biodiversity we lose is not just an ecological loss— it is a direct cost to our collective wellbeing.
This Mental Health Awareness Week, we’re reminded that to protect nature is to protect ourselves.
How do you connect with nature?

For decades, Sir David Attenborough has not only brought audiences closer to the natural world — he’s transformed how we see it. 🌎
He’s shown us that Earth is extraordinary, and humans are uniquely capable of solving our greatest challenges.
Today, on Sir David’s 100th birthday, we’re reminded of the role we all play in shaping the next chapter of our planet’s story. 🙌

Sir David Attenborough reflects with Prince William on the wonder of discovering the underwater world for the very first time 🎥 🌊
When making Ocean with David Attenborough, we set out to tell the untold story of our seas in a way that could inspire audiences with the beauty, fragility and importance of the ocean.
It’s been incredible to see that story travel far beyond the screen, with impact that continues to grow 🙏

🌊 One year on, our film Ocean with David Attenborough has supported a global movement for ocean recovery - revealing what’s really happening in our ocean and why it matters.
The film has become one of National Geographic's most watched documentaries, inspired conversation in classrooms and communities, and influenced global decision-makers.
It’s been a huge collective effort - from filmmakers and scientists to partners and organisations around the world.

Our planet exists in a delicate balance, sustaining life for millions of years. But the scales are tipping – we’re weathering a storm of setbacks, devastating headlines and fierce resistance.

What is the value of a tree?
ㅤ
🌱A new seedling?
🍄 Fern, fungi, soil?
🐦A bird, an insect?
ㅤ
Now, consider the value of them all combined.
Working together as an ecosystem.
That’s a whole different equation.
The answer is much more than the sum of its parts.
ㅤ
An ecosystem in balance.

This #ForestDay, take a minute to celebrate the lifeline that is our precious forests. 🌳
They help clean the air we breathe, regulate our climate, support biodiversity, and sustain millions of communities around the world.
Covering a third of our planet and home to half of all species on land, losing our forests is not an option. Protecting them means protecting our future. 💚
