Topic: Inequality & Climate Justice; What Can You Do to End World Poverty?

Speakers:
Vernetta Lopez, ONE (SINGAPORE) President, actress and radio DJ
Michael Switow, ONE (SINGAPORE) co-founder

Other info:
ONE (SINGAPORE) is dedicated to raising public awareness and taking concrete actions to Make Poverty History.

Why is a group focused on creating a just world without poverty showing a climate film? Because climate justice and the fight to eradicate poverty are inextricably linked. Rich countries are largely to blame for climate change, but the poor are the hardest hit and have the least resources to deal with it. 2009 is also a key year for action. In just 10 weeks, world leaders will meet in Copenhagen for the United Nations Climate Change Conference. We need to ensure that they act now to sign an ambitious, fair and binding climate deal.

About The Film:

From the producer of the Oscar-winning "One Day in September" comes an ambitious drama-documentary-animation hybrid about the consequences of not acting now to halt climate change. The "Age of Stupid' stars Oscar-nominated Pete Postlethwaite as an old man living in the devastated world of 2055. Watching 'archive' footage from 2008, he asks "why didn't we stop climate change while we had the chance?"
