Recenzii
“The
entire
film
series
is
beyond
fantastic.
Through
the
YVFP
films
we
witness
youth
taking
a
stand
to
fight
to
save
their
planet
and
their
future.”
“For youth, the films provide an epiphany, allowing them to realize how much power they have to make positive change in the world. Please watch these films and to get motivated to take action on climate change.”
“By finding and giving voice to the “bright spots” – the kids who are leading the charge, not passively waiting for adults to act, who are innovating in their homes, schools, and communities to create a more sustainable and yes, fun world, this project is helping thousands of others – kids and adults – find inspiration and motivation to take action.”
