Tuesday Video - The Get a Grip Edition


Wake Up, Freak Out - then Get a Grip from Leo Murray on Vimeo. For your Tuesday video viewing pleasure enjoy this 11-plus minute animated clip from Plane Stupid activist Leo Murray titled, “Wake Up, Freak Out – then Get a Grip. Imagine the worst case scenario of climate change – this video will lay it out for you. Packed with science and a violin playing polar bear, this video is an eye-opener (as if people needed that) and a wildly entertaining clip. Murray’s take home message: “It is now very clear that in order to actually win the fight against climate change, making big changes to the way we each live our own lives is not going to be enough; we’re also going to have to actively confront powerful vested interests who will stop at nothing to prevent the changes we need from taking place. We have to be more than just consumers.”
