\u201cEvery single one of us can count \u2013 but now is the time to stand up and be counted\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Chris Packham has issued a rallying cry as he graces the cover of this week\u2019s special Earth Day issue of Radio Times<\/strong> magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Springwatch presenter is one of the country\u2019s biggest champions of the natural world, and in addition to starring on the front of the latest RT<\/strong>, he will be sitting in the editor\u2019s chair for a week too.<\/p>\n

Many of the features inside the new issue \u2013 out on Tuesday 16th April \u2013 are devoted to some of the issues Chris holds dear and wants the public to know more about.<\/p>\n

You can get an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at Chris shooting his Radio Times<\/strong> cover in the video above.<\/p>\n

Speaking of the vision behind the picture, Chris said: \u201cI\u2019ve been working over a number of years with a fantastic photographer, Richard Ansett, he and I had been discussing an idea of a pastiche on an ecclesiastical picture with a figure that was sort of lending itself to Saint Francis. But, tongue in cheek.\u201d<\/p>

They had always been discussing doing a shoot in that way and, as Ansett explains in the video, Radio Times<\/strong> backed the idea and the cover was born!<\/p>\n

In the cover, they are playing with the notion that the naturalist is \u201cthe face of a lot of people that are working really hard to try and change things in the environment\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Earth Day special issue of Radio Times<\/strong> magazine is out on Tuesday 16th April 2024 \u2013 subscribe to Radio Times <\/strong>here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
