Not surprising. He hasn’t been as active on the series as he used to be. Going forward, I’m not even sure they need someone as intrinsically linked to the show as he was. A regular host is nice but not essential.

It’s still a decent series though. I hope it continues on for years to come

I expect a "The National" type situation where they have a handful of different hosts all with different leads for stories.

The David Suzuki Foundation started a fun thing in 2012 called “30x30”. It was to encourage people to spend at least 30 minutes in nature every day for 30 days in May. I might be the only one still officially doing it, but I have done it every year since.

Haha, I recently left Instagram, but I posted a picture of my adventures every day in May for the last 9 years. I figure I’ll do it one more time to round out a decade of 30x30.

Thanks, David. I wouldn’t be as Canadian as I am without you.

Dang, as a kid the only channel I was allowed unlimited viewing time on was the local PBS affiliate, and "The Nature of Things" and Nova were highlights on a Tuesday night.

He was very popular in Australia. Saw him give a few lectures.

Too bad we didn’t listen to him when we had the time.

He is. The first time I saw a pic of him shirtless in his 80s I thought it was a photoshop job. He’s shredded!

Don’t meet him - he’s an elitist fuckwadd who enriched himself through the foundation. May have started off with all the right intentions but now is now a rotten piece of shit.

I met him on JohnSt. He stopped in the middle of traffic just to give my friend his autograph. Seemed pretty cool to me.

He just wants to follow his grandnephew around. We would do the same, David, we sure would

Good. He’s not what a lot of people think he is.

Elitist hypocrite who owns multiple homes/mansions, travels by private planes, and is generally regarded rude and petty. He has the personal carbon foot print equivalent to a European micro state.

I used to sleep with a girl who had a David Suzuki pillow on her bed. He will be missed.

Saw the first part of the title and almost had a heart attack thinking he had passed. Stepping down is the end of an era but he’s done his part.

One of the few hosts from my youth that were still out there. Salud!

The man is almost 90. I think he is allowed to retire now.
