Many climate films focus on the problems. We are showing films that focus on the best available solutions. We are bringing perspectives not found on mainstream media. This will be an exciting series of mostly new films. This film series is sponsored by the Global Earth Repair Foundation. The Film Festival will be a prelude to the 2nd Global Earth Repair Conference, May 2025 at Fort Worden. Conference #1 was held in May 2019 at Fort Worden. These films are being shown by donation at the door, please consider donating generously to our ongoing work!
