We have met many elders in the several countries we’ve travelled to so far who are deeply engaged in climate action! River activists in Albania or « grandparents for the climate » protesting alongside Greta Thunberg in front of the Swedish parliament are great examples. :)

Let's hope we all fall madly in love with the beauty, grace and elegance of living in harmony with nature, and abandon our desire for domination and bloodlust.

Beavers are nature’s true hydrology engineers and if left alone to their ways along with other herbivores and their predators are capable of reestablishing complete ecosystems.

Musk oxen on the other hand may not be faring as well due to climate change. Amazing animals, a herd of which is best viewed from far away, having seen them once north of the Arctic Circle in Alaska.

That Australian activist group is so incredible! I hope we’ll get to meet and interview them when The Green Journey will make it in Australia (hopefully in 2025!).

Thank you for sharing!
