YOUTH v GOV official trailer from Barrelmaker Productions on Vimeo.
YOUTH v GOV is the story of America’s youth taking on the world’s most powerful government. Armed with a wealth of evidence, twenty-one courageous leaders file a ground-breaking lawsuit against the U.S. government, asserting it has willfully acted over six decades to create the climate crisis, thus endangering their constitutional rights to life, liberty, and property. If these young people are successful, they will not only make history, they will change the future. Thanks to Barrelmaker Productions for their generous offer of this fabulous opportunity. The film is one hour and 50 minutes long.
View the webinar here. April 27, 4:30pm Pacific, IPL hosted a webinar with the filmmaker Christi Cooper, and two youth plaintiffs from the film – Nathan Baring, a Quaker, and Miko Vergun who is Jewish.
This film was the featured film of Interfaith Power & Light’s Faith Climate Action Week, April 22-May 1, 2022. Our theme this year was Sacred Trust: Our children’s right to a livable future.” We will examine our responsibility to safeguard our Earth for future generations, and how our faiths call us to respond with bold and just solutions to climate change.
