Charlie Ottley tells a passionate story of what our future might be given our destructive appetite towards our beautiful natural environment.
Two tales of the same place, a poem and a wish for the future of Romania. A talk on how our destructive habits can break our natural surroundings and at what we might have to look forward to.
This is a Future Spoiler of a worst case scenario but, more importantly, a solution on how we can still make a change, by educating, eradicating corruption, recreating a strong link between man and nature and using tourism to create a better future for ourselves.
While his talk was given in Romania, Charlie's scenarios easily apply to hundreds of places which need actions be taken right now.
