Packham joins activist body but says 'stop disruption'

The naturalist and broadcaster has been appointed the first non US-based director of the Climate Emergency Fund, which has given almost $15m (£11m) to climate activists taking part in nonviolent civil disobedience around the world since 2019.

Announcing his appointment exclusively to the Guardian, Packham said: "What we've got to be clear [about] now is that we need to identify those individuals - because there are so few of them - that are leading us to hell in a handcart.

"We pick on our politicians. We're quite clear there, if they have policies that are not good, that they are fair targets. But what about all of those people in those corporate industries? Why are the CEOs of those companies essentially faceless?

"I think it's time to start calling them out, because those real people are causing real damage."
