[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]To commemorate Earth Day, now seems like the perfect time to not only celebrate the beautiful regions of our earth but to also spread awareness about the urgent global threats our planet is facing due to climate change. Throughout the last few decades, wildlife and the ecosystems they inhabit have been threatened and destroyed due to human activity. This is a time to not only reflect on our mistakes but learn how we can repair the damage we have done moving forward. Fortunately, resources are more readily available than ever before in order to educate oneself, with none being more accessible than the environmental documentaries available today.
