GoodPlanet (GoodPlanet_) Plastic Planet - Offizielle Film Website untitled FLOW Sea level rise in Kowanyama Qld “When that whole ocean comes and rises up, where are we going to go?” ponders Inherkowinginambana, a Kunjen elder from Kowanyama, a coastal Aboriginal community in tropical Queensland, Australia. “Every year it (the tide) comes in, it goes a bit further up….once it hits the swamps, that will kill all the plant life, and the waterways,” adds an Aboriginal ranger who works with local elders to protect Aboriginal country and culture. These tidal changes are not unique to Australia. Global climate change is increasing sea level worldwide. Historically, scientists have documented a wide fluctuation in sea level rise. So how does climatic warming lead to sea level change? Research has shown that thermal expansion of sea water is the leading contributor to sea level change. As the temperature increases, the ocean warms, causing water to expand and the sea level to rise; similar to what happens when bottled water is left out in the heat.

Good Planet - GoodPlanet Agir pour le climat avec Action Carbone Action Carbone est un programme de la fondation GoodPlanet présidée par Yann Arthus-Bertrand. Le programme propose aux entreprises, institutions et particuliers de lutter contre le changement climatique en réduisant et en compensant leurs émissions de gaz à effet de serre. Pour ce faire, le programme finance et accompagne des projets associatifs et communautaires de réduction d’émissions diffuses dans les pays en voie de développement. Par exemple, nous travaillons avec l'ONG Bolivia Inti Sud Soleil en Bolivie et au Pérou sur un projet de construction de fous solaires. Le projet a pour objectif de diffuser des cuiseurs solaires dans quatre régions de l'ouest de la Bolivie.

The Zeitgeist Movement The Zeitgeist Movement advocates a transition from a global money-based economic system to their version of a resource-based economy.[2] The informal group was founded by and is directed by Peter Joseph.[2] Joseph's films, form the basis of The Zeitgeist Movement's ideas. The films are critical of market capitalism and the price system method in general. Joseph created a political movement according to The Daily Telegraph, that dismisses historic religious concepts as misleading and embraces a version of sustainable ecological concepts and science administration of society.[3] The name of the group comes from the German word Zeitgeist, meaning "spirit of the age" or "spirit of the time". History[edit] Views[edit] Currently[edit] The Zeitgeist Movement's ideas are presented through local and national chapters and online release of media.[2] Zeitgeist holds an annual event, Z-Day, in March.

untitled The Crisis of Credit Visualized Walking on Country With Spirits Located on the eastern shore of Australia’s tropical north, Shipton’s Flat is home to Marilyn, a Kuku Nyungkal Aboriginal woman, and her family. She has been living here the ancestral way — far removed from the services and conveniences of modern life. Like her ancestors before her, Marilyn walks through the Nyungkal bubu, the Nyungkal’s country, acknowledging and conversing with the spirit beings around her. She greets the spirit of the flowing stream that provides her family with freshwater, the spirits of her mother, father and grandparents that cared for the country before her, the spirits of her ancestors that have been formed into rocks, and the spirits of the trees and animal life around her that lend shade and sustenance. A change in the weather Marilyn has observed that the seasons are getting hotter. Marilyn feels that the “country is transforming, food is disappearing. What does it mean? “There will be nothing left because it is getting hotter,” Marilyn worries. What should we do?
