Josh Fox (creator of the influential Gasland documentary series thatshowed the negative impact of the natural gas industry from the inside and outside) is now taking his latest film on climate change on a Kickstarter-funded tour. Here are some reasons why you should watch it and support the tour.
1. The film shows how climate change is having an impact on people all over the world, by letting them speak for themselves.
Josh interviews members of affected communities in China, Ecuador, New York, the Pacific Islands, and more to document unique and personal stories of resilience, innovation, community, and love of what climate can't change.
2. The imagery is hauntingly beautiful and will make you want to fight hard for nature.
Footage of the Amazon rain forest, trees in Pennsylvania, the Pacific Ocean and Icelandic glaciers remind viewers that we live in an ecosystem with no borders, and reminds us to love it.3. Climate change is talked about in honest, simple terms.
It might be hard to hear, but it will open your eyes to just how urgent this issue is. It's not a fun topic, but it shares insightful talking points from climate change experts that you will never forget.
4. It will leave you inspired to make a difference.
And it even suggests some of the things you can do to help.
5. It will make you want to dance.
The soundtrack is beautiful, and the emotional roller coaster it takes you on drops you off at an ending that makes you want to get on your feet.
