In this world full of human tragedy, programmes like Winterwatch on the BBC are a breath of fresh air. They're cosy, uplifting, and a great way for all - especially children - to learn about nature.
The UK is one of the most nature-depleted countries in the whole world. This is a vital time to showcase and educate people about nature - not to axe programmes that do!
The BBC has always played a huge role in nature education - from David Attenborough's programmes, to Winterwatch. When our natural world needs lifting up, and our native wildlife animals need saving, we want to be able to count on our BBC to be part of the solution, not the problem.
