"Some grown-ups think: 'Why am I suppossed to do something about this? It's no change for me because I'm older.' Yeah, but it's affecting people after them, and they don't really think that." -- Ecole Bilingue Student, age 8 "This issue will give our generation a purpose and a focus. (Like) the generation of WWII and our parents' generation, the children of the sixties, this can be our revolution." -- Gabrielle Vance, age 17 "This is the biggest issue that our generation faces. It's not going away." -- Tim Truer, age 17 "We decided to do something about it..." -- Verner Wilson, age 20 "We need far more education about climate change, its causes, its consequences and what we can to to minimize further unsettling of the atmosphere that sustains us. Amy Wilson's film is a part of this vital process of education."
"Amy Wilson presents the facts about global warming in a way that inspires hope about the future. The young people she talks to are knowledgeable and dedicated -- and I hope that everyone -- teenagers, adults, politicians in Washington -- will listen to them."
