Charlie Hamilton James originally set out to Peru’s Manu National Park to take photos of one of the world’s most biologically diverse environments. His passion turned into activism when he bought part of the rainforest in an effort to preserve it. After buying the plot, he discovered he had purchased an illegal cocaine factory as well. The trials of the newfound rainforest landowner are told in the BBC documentary series I Bought a Rainforest. James now recounts his efforts and journey to the Peruvian rainforest in the latest iteration of Nat Geo Live!, the final event in the series’ current season.
