0:00:03.720,0:00:06.160
Some call me nature.

0:00:11.460,0:00:15.880
Others call me Mother Nature.

0:00:17.540,0:00:22.640
I’ve been here for over four and a half billion years.

0:00:22.640,0:00:28.740
22,500 times longer than you.

0:00:29.740,0:00:32.580
I don’t really need people.

0:00:32.580,0:00:34.960
But people need me.

0:00:35.640,0:00:38.500
Yes, your future depends on me.

0:00:39.060,0:00:41.790
When I thrive, you thrive.

0:00:43.100,0:00:46.410
When I falter, you falter.

0:00:47.500,0:00:49.660
Or worse.

0:00:53.440,0:00:55.600
But I’ve been here for eons.

0:00:55.900,0:00:58.760
I have fed species greater than you.

0:00:58.760,0:01:03.360
And I have starved species greater than you.

0:01:04.420,0:01:08.980
My oceans. My soil.

0:01:09.720,0:01:14.080
My flowing streams. My forests.

0:01:15.480,0:01:20.280
They all can take you. Or leave you.

0:01:21.480,0:01:23.560
How you choose to live each day,

0:01:23.560,0:01:26.360
whether you regard or disregard me,

0:01:26.360,0:01:28.440
doesn’t really matter to me.

0:01:29.260,0:01:31.700
One way. Or the other.

0:01:31.700,0:01:35.140
Your actions will determine your fate.

0:01:35.140,0:01:38.560
Not mine. I am nature. I will go on.

0:01:38.560,0:01:42.060
I am prepared to evolve.

0:01:44.380,0:01:46.560
Are you?
