The Movie vividly illustrates how we’ve lost touch with Nature and presents a compelling case that reconnecting with the natural world is key to improving personal health and ensuring our survival on Earth. As Jane Goodall has shared, "there is still time, yet there is no time like the present" to get started on greater connection to the natural world, especially when spending time outside is the best antidote for stress in today's times.

Our collective humankind is where the movie begins — with reflections on how over the past several thousand years we have gradually separated from Nature, believing we were meant to transcend and to conquer it. The film traces the disconnect between humans and nature from the agrarian and industrial revolutions to the digital revolution. This disconnect has disrupted billions of years of evolution, leading to a mass extinction of species and threatening the very survival of the human race. With the help of engaging experts, the film highlights the restorative power of nature and several hopeful new developments.

Emulates nature’s designs, process, and systems — rather than simply harvesting its raw materials — resulting in some of today’s most cutting edge innovations. In the medical field, doctors are unveiling new findings on the role of nature in sustaining and healing the human body, and have discovered that spending time in nature can promote physical health, mental acuity, and emotional enhancement.

Love Thy Nature celebrates the dazzling spectacles of our planet, while also revealing how a deeper connection with nature can transform each of us and inspire us to restore endangered ecosystems, as well as our human family. The film closes with a beautiful montage of simple ways to make nature a bigger part of our lives.
