    It’s time to realise that you cannot have or save communities AND nature as some of the former will always exploit the latter with greed and profit, when they are supposed to be living in harmony with it. Humans cannot take precedent over nature anymore that’s why we’ve lost over 70% of it. Keep people away from it and it will thrive, ‘manage’ it or live within it and it’s destined to be an artificial husk of its natural potential.

    for me its hard to hear what someone says when there is music mixed over the audio. I kindly request this World Land Trust UA-cam team not to have text and music together. An expert told me it was probably around 15% of all people that couldnt filter the sound. If you dont believe me your YT team can just ask some random people to listen to your channel and ask what they think; apparently 15% will immediately stop after half a minute saying 'sorry i cant hear with that mixed sound'. Its a neuroligocal thing. Or if people listen to this on their phone with old earplugs it might be a technical thing. Or another reason common among musicians: is they could neuroligically filter it but only after extra straining their focus because the music for them is never background it is always perceived in the front and as a background noise in the distance you hear the band talk. So i have one ear not able to filter (also not in a bar dont talk into that ear) and one ear if i put the earphone only in that ear i can after a few times listening with a lot of strain sort of hear what they say. But the music doesnt add anything to the sphere it only ruins the interview for at least 15% of us or more.
