Interested in sustainability, health, energy, climate change, consumerism, food, solutions, social issues and more? Films for Action is a great resource for finding online documentaries. Some of their films are also available through their lending library.

There is a plethora of topics to choice from. Some of the Films for Action documentaries are available through their Lending Library. One of the Films for Action categories is Sustainability.

"With hundreds of videos scattered across the internet on various websites, both obscure and mainstream, we wanted to create a site that catalogs the best of these films all in one place. We've spent hours watching all sorts of videos, researching the issues they cover, and have done our best to include the best we've watched, while importantly, not including any films that are misleading, contain disinformation, or are simply not that great." - Films for Action

I recommend that everyone see this documentary - watch this 49-minute film Waste = Food - sustainability, technology, design, food, solutions....

"Man is the only creature that produces landfills. Natural resources are being depleted on a rapid scale while production and consumption are rising in na­tions like China and India. The waste production world wide is enormous and if we do not do anything we will soon have turned all our resources into giant landfills of waste. But there is hope. The German chemist, Michael Braungart, and the American designer-architect William McDonough are fundamentally changing the way we produce and build. If waste would become food for the biosphere or the technosphere (all the technical products we make), produc­tion and consumption could become beneficial for the planet. A design and production concept that they call Cradle to Cradle. A concept that is seen as the next industrial revolution." - Films for Action
