The campaign launches at Climate Week NYC and will culminate at COP 15 this December.

The short films and ads feature real-life people whose stories are each a piece of the Climate Change ‘policy puzzle’: a Nobel Peace Prize-winning scientist, a green industry leader, a grassroots activist and a UN negotiator. Through these portraits, we – as an audience and as participants in the climate change discourse – come to understand what is at stake, what the different roles are in this complex UN negotiation, and what is possible.
