Iain Green’s book “Wild London: The Nature of a Capital” offers a unique perspective on London, showcasing the astonishing and diverse wildlife that thrives within the city’s boundaries. “It’s unique to each one of us, the wildlife that we’ve got locally. We live together, it’s important, it’s vital for all of us, that all wildlife continues to exist.” “The Wildlife Wonder project is one of my favorite things I’ve ever done. Each year, I’m out photographing perhaps with 10,000 children, schools all the way across the UK – urban schools, rural schools – getting children outside, mostly into their playgrounds, maybe into local parks, local cemeteries, sometimes even into nature reserves, to look at the wildlife, to see what they’ve got on their doorstep.”“I’ve been a director of Animal Aid for four years. Last year, we campaigned to get a ban on the use of snares, which are these wire devices to trap animals. That was banned in Wales, and we know that Scotland is looking at this at the moment, and we’re hoping to see a UK-wide ban on snares very soon. So, there is change happening.” Animal Aid offers a wide range of educational resources, including a free school speaker service. “One of the core parts of Animal Aid’s work, right from when it started, has been working with young people and then in schools. It’s really vital we shape the next generation to think more carefully and more caringly about animals and also environments. We need to make a change to how we’re looking after the environment.” “This is not our planet that we tolerate animals living on. We share it with animals. They all have the right to be here, to go about their lives as we do ours. And that’s really important.”
