Children are passionate about making change - but only 1 in 5 feel like those in power listen. I'm taking their voices, views & experiences to politicians & policymakers with this challenge: listen, and act on what children are telling you. #TheBigAmbition https://t.co/oJ5Vqr5aDO

6/6 Thanks for reading! We think this is an important area for discussion as NH films are a vital, accessible link to the natural world for many people, as well as being a popular form of entertainment

1/6 My thread is about our recent article about ethical aspects of natural history filmmaking🎥
https://t.co/5hf71InQPB
