Have you ever wondered what the world could look like in the year 2040?
The film 2040, follows Damon Gameau as he meets with innovators and changemakers around the world who are addressing the concerns of climate change. He shows us what the world ‘could be’ if we were to embrace the solutions and technology that currently exist. His goal? To shine light on the future that we can build for our children.
Along with our friends at The Playhouse Cinema, we hosted a Q&A with Damon Gameau in conversation with the Centre for Climate Change Management. Check out the recording below to learn more about the film and Damon’s journey.
