Description: We're the first generation to feel the devastating planetary consequences of climate change, and the last generation that can do something about it. Why do we do so little when we know so much? Disruption unflinchingly investigates to find the answer, laying bare the terrifying science, the relentless industry special interests, and the broken political process failing to respond adequately to this ecological, social, and moral catastrophe. The film also takes us behind the scenes of the effort to organize the largest climate rally in history during the UN's 2014 world climate summit. This is the story of our unique, tipping-point moment in history. The film makes a compelling case for bold action strong enough to tip the balance to build a clean energy future.

"Heading for extinction and what to do about it" by Gail Bradbrook, PhD (50 mins 33 secs)

The film starts out hopeless and hard to hear but ends on a hopeful note. Bradbrook was born in 1972 and grew up in South Elmsall in Yorkshire, England. Her father worked at a mine in South Kirkby. She studied molecular biophysics at the University of Manchester and carried on with a PhD. She carried out post-doctoral work in India and France. In 2015, with George Barda, she set up the group Compassionate Revolution which morphed into Rising Up!, out of which came Extinction Rebellion (XR). She is protesting to raise awareness of the dangers from anthropogenic climate change and believes that only civil disobedience on a large scale can bring about the change that is needed.
