Climate Action Carnival Hereford, have been organising events on the last Saturday of the each month since May 2009 in the lead up to the Climate summit in Copenhagen. We have brought cinema into broad mix of activities for these events.

Films have included, “Save Vestas Wind Turbine Factory”, “Countdown to Copenhagen”, “Eigg – Eco-island” (from Reel News 20), “The Agricultural Rebel (Der Agrar Rebell)”, “Power of Community: How Cuba Survived Peak Oil”, “Age of Stupid”.

Saturday the 28th November will be the final Climate Action Carnival Hereford before the summit. We will be a screening “A Time Comes: the story of the Kingsnorth Six” (running time 20 minutes), 1pm at the Shire Hall, free admission.

“The Kingsnorth Six made history last year: accused of causing £30,000 of criminal damage to Kingsnorth power station, their defence of “lawful excuse” was accepted by the jury – because they were acting to safeguard property around the world “in immediate need of protection” from the impacts of climate change, caused in part by burning coal.”

VISIONonTV Climate Camp 2008

VISION on TV

This screening featured a selection of short films that were originally broadcast over the internet during this year’s Climate Camp through Undercurrent’s VisionOn TV channel.

The Climate Camp 2008 took place between the 3^rd and 11^th August, on the site of a proposed coal fired power station at Kingsnorth in Kent.  The camp received some mainstream media attention, but journalists generally had limited and chaperoned access to the camp to avoid a media circus. Undercurrents however had unrestricted access with a permanent solar and wind powered studio inside the camp, with news bulletins and chat shows uploaded to the internet on a daily basis.  These films offer the chance to see grassroots reports from an inspirational environmental campaign.

The screening was followed by some excellent discussion from the audience; stories from people who had attended the camp and analysis of the different approaches from this camp and 2007.
