A free showing of Hope! Episode 1 - a docuseries on hope, positive stories, climate change and sustainability

Project Description:

What if we looked at the climate conversation a little differently?

Less alarm. Less doom. Less blame. And more hope, possibility and stories about what we can actually do. That’s why Cardiff Met is taking HOPE! On Tour.

What does that mean?

It means exploring the future through stories of solutions, innovation and people creating change, and remembering that there is still time and there are still things we can do.

Cardiff Met is organising a series of free screenings of HOPE! We Are On Time across communities in Cardiff. A cutting-edge, inspiring, exciting and visually spectacular docuseries exploring one of the biggest concerns facing citizens around the world: climate change.

The entire series contains 6 episodes, 11 internationally relevant personalities and many others guiding us through the world of what is possible., 4 continents and 24 inspiring stories showing what is already being done to tackle the climate crisis.

All six episodes screenings will be free and will take place in some of the warmest and most beautiful community hubs around Cardiff, bringing people from different backgrounds together.

Starting with our own campus, each month an episode will be shown at Oasis, the Grangetown Pavilion, The Canopi and Chapters Cinema, before ending up back where it all started.

After each episode, we’ll have a chance to chat, reflect and hear from a speaker sharing a local good story, because there is plenty happening right here in Wales, too.

Book your FREE ticket to watch all or one of the episodes today.

We’ll be showing one episode each month for the next six months, and we’d love for you to be part of it.

This is Episode 1: The Great Opportunity

The big launch, right here at Cardiff Met during Go Green Week.

Episode 1 sets the scene before it takes us around the world to explore how the climate challenge can also be a great opportunity to build a better world.

From Germany, Spain and China to Mexico and Kenya, we’ll discover inspiring solutions already happening in communities around the world, and explore what they might mean for the future.
