tabber.gifContest EPIC Entry: A Convenient Truth!

This film has been fully planned, funded, directed and produced by Jack Guest. Repeat: no external funding, no vested interests, and now no money left to distribute it to the world.. :-(

Still, to have got this far the film represents a triumph of the spirit to stand up and make something happen to help save the planet... even if I do say so myself.

This is a two minute trailer for the as yet unfinished film.

In Autumn 2006, 24-year old Jack Guest and a small film crew travelled to Sweden. They spent three weeks visiting the people and projects that are leading the way in positive solutions to climate change.

The idea behind the film was simple. Everybody knows that the threat posed by climate change is tremendous. Everybody knows that to avoid terrible consequences our societies must change, fast.

But what many people don't know is what this change will look like. Nor how it will affect their lives.

The Convenient Truth is that solutions for a stable climate do exist, and that they can enrich, rather than restrict, our lives. The problem of climate change can be an opportunity for us all, the world can get better, and we can even keep the saunas!
