| THE POWER OF ACTIVISM (53 min) Australia/Indonesia/Pakistan |
[watch trailer] |
Description:
This film takes us on an emotional journey around the world and is sure to light a fire under even the strongest climate change denier. The Power Of Activism focuses on six highly spirited female activists as they are put under the microscope to ascertain the financial impact of their environmental solutions… and the results are astonishing. From shark conservation to indigenous practices, intensive farming to plastic pollution–all their causes fall under the umbrella of “climate change,” but they should also fall under the umbrella of "saving tax payers hundreds of millions of dollars.”
