ActNowFilm2 – intergenerational conversations on climate change

ActNowFilm2 is a global youth voices film, produced by the University of Bath Institute for Policy Research (IPR) and Cambridge Zero, supported by the UK Universities Climate Network.

ActNowFilm2 is a short film compiled of intergenerational conversations from around the world in which young and older people share their lived experiences, and hopes and fears of climate change, across generations. The conversations are led by young people and seek to show and discuss what action has already been taken to protect people and places and act as a clarion call for greater further action to protect humanity from the effects of climate change.

ActNowFilm2 is an opportunity for young and older people living across the planet to tell decision-makers, in their own words, about their experiences of climate change, why climate action is important to them and future generations, and what messages they would like to give the COP27 negotiators.

ActNowFilm2 is drawn from films submitted by participants from every continent, except Antarctica. The film shows the rapid escalation of climate impacts on people and places over the lifetimes of participants, in multiple locations across the world, and that now is the time for urgent action to stop climate change.

The film was showcased in the Blue Zone, at COP27, Egypt on 9th November 2022.
