This boy's plea for the environment is so touching
Updated | By Poelano Malema

Henry, a young boy from Mount Vernon, Washington in the US, has lots of love for the planet, and it breaks his heart to see humans destroying it.
After watching a video at school that spoke about pollution, Henry couldn’t help himself but break down in the car on his way home with his mom Annie Hall. "The planet is gonna be wrecked. People are just being rude to it. They throw trash on the ground, they cut down trees, they make forests into places… into roads. They are being so bad. I could just call them dumb people, or maybe even a bad word, the "s" word (stupid),” he can be heard saying in the video.
Henry’s video, which was recorded by his mom, has been viewed over 16-million times on Facebook in just a week.
He is so passionate about the environment that his mom told reporters he recently dressed up as a park ranger for Halloween.
One thing is clear, Henry would make a very good park ranger! Or even Captain Planet - remember that show?
Below is the video.
