“I believe that every species has a right to live without justifying its existence and should not be wiped out by recklessness or economic interest.”

March 2025 “National Geographic launched the National Geographic 33, a dynamic list honouring 33 extraordinary individuals whose imaginative ideas and unstoppable drive are making the world a better place.
From Hollywood heavyweights and fearless scientists to climate warriors and trailblazing entrepreneurs, National Geographic 33 highlights a wide range of innovators and icons whose work ranges from saving our winters to advocating for mental health and revolutionizing high fashion to make it more sustainable.”
I’m delighted to announce my inclusion on this list of ’33 Agents of Change Striving to Make our World a Better Place’. The list includes creators such as Jason Momoa @prideofgypsies, visionaries such as Selena Gomez @selenagomez, icons such as @doncheadle and adventurers such as @jeremyjones @pattiegonia or myself. @natgeo @natgeoespana.
The pics of myself, El mesías de las plantas, in Nationa Geographic have been taken by the fantastic @joyceszeng pro.
