Tell The Future

Young people ask programme makers to include climate breakdown in their shows

As children around the world invite adults to join #FridaysforFuture protests on Friday 20 September, albert is giving young people a platform to ask industry professionals to communicate climate breakdown and the need for action.

This is a great opportunity for our industry to support young people in the Fridays For Future movement and achieve significant positive change through your work.

Young climate activist Noga calls for more action from programme makers.

Children and young adults have made short ‘selfie-type’ videos asking how climate change might be relevant to their favourite TV genre, be that food, fashion, travel or sport.

Have you got an answer for Lucy?

The videos conclude by asking programme makers to reflect the reality of the climate crisis in their content.

albert has agreed to bring these videos to the attention of producers, directors, on screen talent and commissioners, and that’s where you come in…
