Now, more than ever, we need positive voices in the ecological crisis. Join us in watching “2040,” director Damon Gameau’s “exercise in fact-based dreaming.”  Using only the solutions that are available to us today, Damon envisions a positive future for our children and planet.

The film takes a solutions-based approach to how we can mitigate, using the technology we already have, the enormous global issues we currently face. The main themes/solutions looked at in the film are around: empowerment of women and girls; marine regeneration; regenerative agriculture; renewable energy; and circular economy. It’s a story of hope, and a powerful tool to encourage people to take action.

The Meaningful Movies Project, in collaboration with Social Justice Film Festival, is making this film available to watch on your own, and then we invite you to join us for a community conversation organized by your local Meaningful Movies group. After you register you will be sent a link to watch the film as well as links to several community conversations. Save the links for the film and for the community conversation in (or closest to) your area to find out what activists and nonprofits are doing to protect our planet and how YOU can help!
