When I was a kid, I used to find nature documentaries quite inspiring but nowadays most of those documentaries are alarming - for good reasons. Rare is the documentary that doesn't mention climate change, an animal that is now critically endangered, or an ecosystem that's been almost completely destroyed due to human activity.
Humans have assumed control of our planet's stewardship, but our management skills have fallen woefully short.
Perhaps one of the biggest problems is that too much of our economy is based on the destruction of our environment and the planet is now fighting back. If we don't learn how to work with nature then it's a battle that we'll most definitely loose.
