Miguel Casas 10/03/2016 10:48 AMI care a lot about the environment and sustainable living worldwide. I especially worry about earth, water and air pollution. I care a lot about our forest and I have a special connection with Amazon jungle where I see too many companies causing oil pollution or cutting down the jungle and creating global warming. I worry about the legacy that we will leave for our kids and generations to come, and I like to do everything I can to keep our planet pristine.
