Co-presented with Grist as part of Climate Week NYC
This special Climate Week Playlist features short films from recent years of DCEFF that touch on different aspects of the climate crisis — from climate justice activism and rising sea levels to policy and affected wildlife.
These films will be available to stream for free any time during Climate Week (September 17-24). Viewers are free to exit the screening and return to finish watching the films over the course of the week.
About Us: The Environmental Film Festival in the Nation's Capital (DCEFF) has been the premier showcase of environmental films since 1993. Each March in Washington, DC, we bring the world’s largest green film festival to massive in-person audiences. Since 2020, we have focused on extending our reach beyond DC to the entire world via virtual screenings and our ever-growing Watch Now catalog. In 2023, we were extremely excited to return to venues across the DC Metro for in-person screenings and events — in addition to continuing to offer virtual programming for our audiences around the world.
As a candidate, Joe Biden called climate change an “existential threat” and promised to make fixing the problem part and parcel of every legislative action undertaken during his Administration. While the Biden team got off to a good start – shutting down the XL Pipeline and rejoining the Paris Agreement on his first day in office – that commitment has wavered since, as related environmental ills, from flooding to fires, extraordinary heat waves to droughts, continue to mount.
Squeezed by the war in Ukraine and calls to ramp up oil and gas production and export and one loan recalcitrant fossil fuel millionaire Senator, addressing the problem has not been easy. We traveled across the country to visit with frontline activists in New Jersey, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Virginia, Louisiana, Texas, Iowa, and California to bring back stories from the frontlines to share with President Biden, to demand that he do better.
