1. The Game Changers
“The Game Changers” is currently extremely popular. Everyone is talking about this documentary. They show that a “plant based” diet can provide top athletes with enough protein, strength and a healthy body. This was certainly a motivating documentary about plant based nutrition for me. In addition, it raises one of the biggest climate problems. Namely; Animal agriculture. That is why this Netflix documentary is 1 for me.
2. Minimalism – A Documentary About The Important Things
“Minimalism – A Documentary About The Important Things” has really changed my life and mindset. This Netflix documentary shows that in the society we now live in, we often offer too much value to “stuff”, and that less stuff often brings more happiness. And how you can create a happier and more valuable life with fewer things. Buying stuff is harmful to the environment, especially when too many superfluous items are consumed. That is why it is number 2.
3. A Plastic Ocean
