So he has no authority to do so, despite having a degree in natural science from Cambridge and being an amateur naturalist (during boyhood) and a professional one for the 70+ Years of the rest of his life?

What would convince you of someone’s authority?
that`s what we`re ascertaining.

you call him excellent, an authority, has been around for many decades and is almost peerless. correct?

what would you call the role he has presented himself as?

You asked me this question, I should note, because you now claim to be running from “questions questions too many questions.”

He would be classified as a science communicator, which is someone who can understand science and make it accessible to people not like you.

As to his commentaries about climate change, like any good scientist, he was swayed by the preponderance of evidence, which has steadily grown since about 1975 or so. Attenborough claims to be convinced of the evidence in 2004 and has mentioned it in his documentaries from about 2006 or so.
