I've finally got around to curating a selection of films about the #climate crisis 🎥
There's lot of mediocre climate films out there, but for me these stand out head & shoulders above the rest 🎞️
They make excellent resources for classrooms, lecture halls, or community cinema's 🎬

Toxic algal blooms are killing dolphins, sharks, rays and other marine life in South Australian waters, in the same week that reversal of current flows are reported for the first time in the Southern Ocean.
But still our government approves massive polluting gas projects like the North West shelf.

I think most people (myself included) don’t have an intuition for orders of magnitude (e.g., the difference between millionaire and billionaire).
One way to appreciate this is time, since we all experience it. Here's the difference between a thousand, a million, and a billion seconds.

“Unvaccinated women who contracted COVID during pregnancy were at higher risk of stillbirths. They were more likely to be admitted to ICU, give birth prematurely or die. Yet their greatest protection, the COVID vaccine, sat untouched, buried under doubt, polluted by disinformation”
“God, No, Not Another Case.” COVID-Related Stillbirths Didn’t Have to Happen.
A lack of testing data and government guidance led many to avoid the COVID-19 vaccine during pregnancy, unwittingly increasing their chances of a stillbirth.

The Murujuga rock art is one of Australia's most priceless heritage sites.
And it's being slowly destroyed.
If Environment Minister Murray Watt approves the 50 year extension to the North West Shelf, it will be a death sentence for Murujuga.
