The People Vs Climate Change

‘When The People Vs Climate Change ended, I dried my eyes and started it all over again. The real beauty of this documentary is that all the usual jargon associated with climate content is missing. This is a a story about people. “I’m just like a normal person, I don’t know anything, you know what I mean?” In the environmental movement, many of us struggle with stories. We know the problem. We shout about injustice, emissions, pollution, rising sea levels, global warming. We point to the science. And in our rush for urgency, we forget to paint a picture. We don’t stop to pick a wild flower and put it in our hair. We don’t lay in the grass, fingers entwined in another's, and watch fluffy clouds. This documentary showcases the power of good storytelling and how it can shape the climate journey we are all on. Beautiful stories will always take us somewhere else, so why can’t they take us to a better future?‘
