How to Save a Planet Podcast....
 
Greetings!
The new film "I am Greta", about Greta Thunberg the 17 year old Swedish climate activist, debuted on Hulu last week. I'm a big fan of Greta and what she's accomplished in two short years. She continues to inspire me to do more and to do better, in helping to shape a better future.  Please watch the film with your class or local group and think of where you can take action in your own way. See below for how to watch via Hulo OR via the scheduled FREE viewing hosted by our friends at Interfaith Power & Light on Nov.24th.
 
My wife Dena has been sharing excerpts from the book " All We can Save" (editted by Drs. Katherie Wilkinson and Ayana Elizabeth Johnson) and now listening to the podcast "How to save a Planet" by Ayana Johnson and Alex Blumberg. It's awesome! Each episode can be a catalyst for discussion in your class.  There is hope embedded in these episodes - share with your class or group, and think of ways to take action.
 
Looking forward,
- Tor
 
Film Synopsis
 
The story of teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg is told through compelling, never-before-seen footage in this intimate documentary from Swedish director Nathan Grossman. Starting with her one-person school strike for climate action outside the Swedish Parliament, Grossman follows Greta—a shy student with Asperger’s—in her rise to prominence and her galvanizing global impact as she sparks school strikes around the world. The film culminates with her extraordinary wind-powered voyage across the Atlantic Ocean to speak at the UN Climate Action Summit in New York City.
 
 
"I really like the film and I think it gives a realistic image of myself and my daily life. I hope anyone who watches the film can finally understand that we young people aren't school striking just for fun. We are protesting because we don't have a choice. A lot has of course happened since I started school striking, but sadly we are still stuck on square one. The changes and the level of awareness needed are nowhere to be seen today. All that we ask for is for our society to treat the climate crisis as a crisis, and give us a safe future. I think the film shows just how far that is from happening right now. It shows that the urgency of the scientific message isn't getting through."
