A FIERCE GREEN FIRE
Content Project
A Fierce Green Fire is the first big-picture synthesis of environmentalism - grassroots and global activism spanning fifty years worldwide. It tells the story of the environmental movement from conservation to climate change. We focus on activism -- people fighting to save their homes, their lives, the future. Our concerns are connecting causes, how the issues grew, exploring ideas and the evolution of a vision. The common theme is a struggle to save nature against the destructive impact of humanity – from halting dams in the Grand Canyon to battling 20,000 tons of toxic waste at Love Canal; from Greenpeace saving the whales to Chico Mendes and the rubbertappers saving the Amazon; from climate change to the promise of transforming our civilization. Our thesis is that this is the time when mankind must learn to live with nature, move beyond the exploitation at the heart of industrial society and find a way based on biology, balancing human needs with the natural world that sustains us, creating a living planet. As Stewart Brand says in the film, “We’re not passengers on Spaceship Earth. We are Spaceship Earth. We are Gaia.”  
The Greatest Story Ever Sold
Content Project
From the producers of 'The End of the Line', 'The Flaw' and 'The War Don't See', 'The Greatest Story Ever Sold' is a feature documentary revealing the nuclear industry's 5-decade campaign to sell atomic energy to an unwitting public. Using a combination of compelling personal stories, expert testimony and often blackly comic archive material, the film will delve behind the spin to discover the true costs of nuclear power in the UK, US, Europe and beyond, as well as showing how there IS another way to power all our futures.
