Ben has a combined degree in Environmental Sciences and International Development from the University of East Anglia. His concern for the planet stems from his passion for the outdoors and extensive travel experience. He has worked in Sweden, volunteered in Fiji and studied in Australia. As well as 3 years of adventures with the RAF, Ben has an unusual affinity for sharks and an irrepressible desire to go scuba diving. Before joining Nice and Serious, Ben worked on various documentary series for the BBC, Discovery Channel, Channel 4 and Channel 5. He believes that audiovisual communication is the future, and that the best way to engage people in environmental issues is via entertaining education.
