A Fierce Green Fire:
The Battle for a Living Planet —
Shown In Conjunction with the PARIS COP
A documentary on 5 decades of the Environmental Movement
With a Section on The Evolution of the Climate Movement
A FIERCE GREEN FIRE chronicles the largest movement of the 20th century and one of the keys to the 21st. It brings together all the major parts of environmentalism and connects them. It focuses on activism, people fighting to save their homes, their lives, the future and succeeding against all odds.
The film first screened at a moment of promise in 2012: 25 years after Dr. James Hansen first warned of global warming; 8 years after Katrina; 3 years after the Gulf oil disaster; 2 years after meltdown at Fukushima; a year and a half since halting the Keystone Pipeline; and half a year since the wakeup call that was Hurricane Sandy, the capper to the hottest year on record. More people than ever are active — descending on Washington, DC and launching a broad alliance to Stop Oil. Right now, the Movement gathers in Paris to demand that the Conference of Parties finally commits to a global solution to restore the climate.
A FIERCE GREEN FIRE gives us reason to believe change can come.
