![]() With knowledge of these projects in hand and a kickass animation team, Gameau presents optimistic, hypothetical landscapes of what our world could look like if we used them. Rather than sitting in the grim reality of the present, Gameau travelled the globe to chat with people who are developing ways to reduce our emissions, sequester excess carbon from the system, and disrupt the economic system - in renewable energy, regenerative farming, marine permaculture, and electric, shared transportation. What would the world look like in 20 years if we implemented existing technological solutions to tackle climate change right now? Australian filmmaker Damon Gameau wanted to find out in order to write a visual letter to his 4-year-old daughter, Velvet. Plus, we've added a tip on how to help in real life, after these films leave you wondering what the hell to do next. We've rounded up the best climate change documentaries and where to watch them. You can turn to a handy documentary and get educated on what’s happening to the only Earth we’ve got. Maybe you don’t have the time or inclination to sit down with the studies, like Mashable’s Mark Kaufman does for you. The truth is no easy pill to swallow, and anxiety about climate change is real, but our lives and the continued existence of our planet depends on people knowing what’s up. If you actually hear from those at the forefront of this emergency, along with scientists and researchers, you might be moved to realise it’s everyone's problem - and to act in ways that might help fix it.īeing informed about climate change and its very real consequences is crucial for all human beings. Still, it can be hard to get your head around exactly how human-induced climate change is affecting our globe when each day we just go about our daily lives, scrolling through TikTok and making carefree weekend plans (well, before pandemic, anyway). Extreme weather events are getting worse, and the Arctic is not looking good, even though nations around the globe have committed to keeping average global temperature rise below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Warm temperatures baked Earth in the first half of 2020, and 19 of the last 20 years are the warmest on record. But as Greta Thunberg would say, some of us still aren’t panicking enough. ![]() In case you hadn’t noticed, things aren’t fine with our planet.
