After 5 years of toiling away to write #RicherWiserHappier, it’s thrilling to behold these 8 different editions of the book. At last count, it’s being translated into 22 languages, from Turkish to Estonian, Hebrew to Japanese! Thanks to everyone who’s helped it to take flight.

Once again @whitehallhilary stealing the show from her two boys @jackwhitehall and @fatherwhitehall. We bumped into her at a local Italian Wednesday night. Apparently @jackwhitehall was left at home babysitting @Winst_Whitehall and learning his lines….

⚠️None of our national parks are wild enough to withstand the shocks of the extinction and climate crises.
Tell the UK Government and devolved administrations to mandate #WilderNationalParks and restore nature on a large scale 🌱

I suspect @williamgreen72 new book “Richer, Wiser, Happier” would have made the 2021 list. A fantastic read.

On #WorldEarthDay it is all too easy to concentrate on the importance of trees and coral reefs but do not ignore the significance of the sadly often overlooked #seagrass #kelp #mangroves

Today is #WorldEarthDay 🌍
The surface of our Earth is 71% water. Yet, we pollute, overfish and exploit our oceans.
Let's turn the tide and #RestoreOurEarth. Ecosystem restoration is a winning investment, with every $1 spent bringing $10-15 in return🌱

"If we want to solve the three most pressing challenges of our century - biodiversity loss, climate change and food shortages - we must protect our ocean."
Currently, only 7% of the ocean is protected.
