Ellie Goulding urges people to protect the planet

Ellie Goulding is urging people to "fight to protect" the planet.

The 'Power' hitmaker is a global ambassador for the UN Environment Programme and a self-confessed "nature nerd", and has said that following the increase of people's interest in nature amid the coronavirus pandemic, she hopes to see more people willing to make a stand against climate change.

Ellie went on to quote oceanographer Jacques Cousteau, and said the people who "fell in love with nature" this year should now be fighting to keep it safe.
