The whale

Hello humans,

When I was a child, I was hypnotized by animal documentaries. In recent years, I have been watching this type of documentary again and I am still submerged by the beauty of nature.

It is no secret that our planet is dying and we are destroying a treasure. We are all concerned because we are all part of this planet. And without nature, we are nothing.

I think we have moved too far from nature and it is time to reconnect with it. While waiting for your next walk in the forest or in the park of your city, I recommend the OUR PLANET series available on Netflix, the images are incredible and the text tries to raise our awareness.
