The Here Now Project

Greg Jacobs, Jon Siskel United States 2024 76 min.

Climate change is happening here and now. A stunning visual diary about the impact climate change is already having on ordinary people around the world. Using footage taken by affected people around the world, this epic documentary makes its message overwhelmingly clear: it is happening here and now, and we are all in the middle of it together.

The extreme weather that climate scientists have been predicting for half a century, has arrived in several places. This becomes devastatingly clear in this impressive series of images of fires, floods, storms and droughts, from the streets of Brooklyn to the forests of Siberia. Built out of thousands of hours of in-the-moment footage - no narration, no talking heads - the film transforms the ordinary act of shooting a cell phone video into the radical act of bearing witness. An epic film that captures both the urgent and global nature of climate change with the important message: we’re all in this, together.
