About this Event
What turns a childhood fascination with animals, into a lifetime spent defending the natural world? How do you communicate the urgency of climate and biodiversity loss to millions? And what does it take to recreate a Tyrannosaurus Rex?! The man with the answers is naturalist, broadcaster and author Chris Packham.
Chris has spent decades bringing wildlife into our living rooms, via much-loved TV programmes including The Really Wild Show and Springwatch. Known for his uncompromising commitment to conservation, Chris is also a leading voice on environmental issues and a co-founder of the campaign group Wild Justice.
In a special edition of Radio 4’s The Life Scientific, recorded at the Ri, Jim Al-Khalili talks to Chris about the kestrel that changed his life, coming to terms with his autism diagnosis, and why speaking up for wildlife has never been more important.
This event will include time for audience questions.
