Roger Morgan-Grenville is a writer, speaker and campaigner on nature and biodiversity, especially in the United Kingdom. In his lifetime, we have effectively lost half of what we had.

"We have a giant and uncomfortable opportunity staring us in the face right now. At the same time that biodiversity loss is even more likely to harm us than climate change, it is also generally far easier to restore. Therefore I try to write with a mixture of hope and realism, and of science and anecdote, always conscious that our stories are human ones. We got the place into this mess, and it is only us and our combined efforts that will bring us back out again; we won't mend nature by simply hating the species that has brought it to this point. And there is no situation that is so serious that there isn't room for gentle humor."

He also campaign actively to restore the Eurasian Curlew, Britain's biggest wader, to a healthy population, and to bring Natural History back as a permanent feature of our children's education, and not just the privileged ones.
