LONDON, Nov 20 (Reuters) - Queen Elizabeth presented
broadcaster David Attenborough with an award on Wednesday for
his hit BBC nature series Blue Planet II, which raised public
awareness around the world of the issue of plastic pollution in
oceans.

Attenborough, who like the monarch is 93 years old, was
awarded the Chatham House prize along with the BBC Studios
Natural History Unit for "the galvanising impact" of the series,
the London-based international affairs think tank said.
