In HOW TO LET GO OF THE WORLD AND LOVE ALL THE THINGS CLIMATE CAN’T CHANGE Fox continues in his deeply personal style, investigating climate change – the greatest threat our world has ever known. Traveling to 12 countries on 6 continents, the film acknowledges that it may be too late to stop some of the worst consequences and asks, what is it that climate change can’t destroy? What is so deep within us that no calamity can take it away?

The film premiered at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival this January to seven standing ovations and has been awarded the Documentary Award for Environmental Advocacy by the DC Environmental Film Festival.

Fox and team are partnering with local grassroots groups across the country to bring the film to 100 communities like Raleigh that are on the frontlines of climate change. As many of you know we have been working to stop fossil fuel development like fracking, coal and natural gas plants, offshore drilling, and coal ash pollution. It’s time to keep fossil fuels in the ground! We are also advocating for voting rights, environmental justice, and to legalize third-party solar to help grow a 100% renewable energy in NC.

We’re already seeing the impacts of climate change. Now is the time for communities to come together to take action to stop fossil fuel development and transition to 100% renewable energy! That’s what the LET GO AND LOVE TOUR is all about. We need you to be a part of this important moment for our community and planet!!
