Im a writer and film maker. I love Mother Nature. we need to personify Nature so there is a human connect with the masses.
The media has a challenging role. I have had a role in introducing Biodiversity to media colleges. We need to leverage resources for the greater good and the approach must be more aggressive and creative :)
