"For most of history, man has had to fight nature to survive; in this century he is beginning to realize that, in order to survive, he must protect it."
There are some people I would really have liked to have met. Jacques-Yves Cousteau is one of them. I remember as a boy seeing "Le Monde du Silence" and being stunned by images from the oceans, the kind of stuff that is on TV documentaries every night now. Sadly, these same oceans are now full of plastic waste. And we keep adding to it.
Hello, Hopefully we are not too late to protect nature. So much damage has been done. Great quote and a lovely image. Take care, have a great day and a happy weekend.
