David Attenborough to be patron of Optimum Population Trust Sir David Attenborough said yesterday that the growth in global population was frightening, as he became a patron of an organisation that campaigns to limit the number of people in the world. The television presenter and naturalist said that the increase in population was having devastating effects on ecology, pollution and food production. â€œThere are three times as many people in the world as when I started making television programmes only a mere 56 years ago,â€ he said, ... â€œIt is frightening. We canâ€™t go on as we have been. We are seeing the consequences This is our only planet... Will greed, ignorance, and procrastination sink us all?...
