Producing for the Planet Launches Greening the Screen: An Action Guide for Canadian Media Producers
Producing for the Planet, a coalition of Canadian independent media producers who are making a commitment to act on climate change has launched an action guide and resources to empower and unite producers in being a leading force for positive environmental change.
As the captains of film and television production, producers have a unique opportunity to embrace climate leadership that can scale and accelerate climate solutions in the motion picture industry and beyond. Producing for the Planet envisions a future where sustainable production is not an added effort but the default mode of operation; where the Canadian film and television industry leads globally in sustainability, setting a high standard for environmental stewardship and social responsibility. In this future, Canadian producers, guided by a strong commitment to the planet and its people, integrate climate justice and sustainable practices into the fabric of their work, all while creating compelling content that inspires and educates audiences about the importance of sustainability.
An Action Guide for Media Producers is a practical, shareable and actionable resource for producers and other leaders in the motion picture industry. It has been written by independent producers working with sustainability professionals and has been designed to apply equally across genres, company sizes and budget levels.
Throughout the guide are best practices to inspire action, whether you’re just starting out or want to level up your current efforts. We also sign-post the many excellent external resources and tools and templates for plans and policies that can be used on productions.
Producing for the Planet will introduce new features such as an archive of member-donated resources such as policy examples, production plans, case studies and much more.
Creative BC proudly supports Producing for the Planet via our Domestic Industry Initiatives program, and endorses its mission in alignment with the Reel Greenâ„¢ initiative, Canada’s Climate Action Catalyst.
