Awesome things to watch if you like nature
This blog has all the links to all the cool nature-related and sustainable living things that inspire me. I desire to one day own my plot of land where I can build an ecological space where I can invite people to join me for movement retreats, helping to create a nature-connected space for creative like-minded people
This blog will be an organic document, meaning that I will be adding things as time goes on. Keep scrolling if want to become inspired!
Inspiring people doing cool things with their land:
Roaming Wild Rosie (link)
Roaming Wild Rosie has an awesome vlog about her renovations on her land in Sweden. She moved from London to Sweden and took on a whole project pretty much by herself. Mighty impressive and incredibly inspiring for a woman like myself who desires to own land, to build a wild little sanctuary.
Project Kamp (link)
Project Kamp is awesome! If you’re in any way intrigued by sustainable living, creating a space new home from scratch, reusing materials, building and working in a community etc this is your kind of channel. They post detailed vlogs about the facilities they build on their 10 acres. They invite volunteers to help with building and maintaining the land. Want to know the best part? If you have an interest in any of it, all their plans for anything and everything they build/create is open source. Anyone can access these to use for themselves. Awesomely inspiring humans <3 This is kind of the project that I am hoping to set up.
Biggest Little Farm (link)
Oh dear gosh, this film had me GLUED to the screen. It’s beautiful, funny, sad at times, and oh so joyful at times. Worth a watch whether you’re interested in sustainable living or not. This film follows a couple who bought land that had dead soil, and their journey with an ecologist led them to rewild their land, bringing nature back onto their farm. They built things from scratch. Focusing their land on rebuilding their soil, they create a dead desert into a thriving ecosystem farm with absolutely no experience. It’s gonna make you say Daaayyummn!!! Worth every second, at least for me.
Kiss the Ground (link)
Kiss the Ground reveals that, by regenerating the world’s soils, we can completely and rapidly stabilize Earth’s climate, restore lost ecosystems and create abundant food supplies. Using compelling graphics and visuals, along with striking NASA and NOAA footage, the film artfully illustrates how, by drawing down atmospheric carbon, soil is the missing piece of the climate puzzle.
This movie is positioned to catalyze a movement to accomplish the impossible – to solve humanity’s greatest challenge, to balance the climate and secure our species future.
The Incredible Natural World
Fantastic Fungi (link)
This is a spectacle of a documentary. It covers the ins and outs of fungi and their importance to the natural world. As the blurb describes: A consciousness-shifting film about the mycelium network that takes us on an immersive journey through time and scale into the magical earth beneath our feet, an underground network that can heal and save our planet.
Paul Stamets is an awesome guy who loves to share the beauty and incredibleness of fungi.
Life on Our Planet (link)
The incredible story of life's epic, four-billion-year journey on Earth comes alive in this series from narrated by Morgan Freeman. I, personally loved this series as well as its follow up Our Universe.
Our Universe (link)
Witness the remarkable story of our universe over billions of years and its inextricable link to life on Earth in this sweeping documentary series. As of recent I’ve been obsessing about all things the universe. This incredible docu series has incredible visuals to fall in love with deep space.
