The Ecologist Film Unit (EFU), a collaboration between the ethical investigations agency Ecostorm and the Ecologist magazine, has recently produced a short film called ‘Melting Point: the new frontline in eco-activism’. Ahead of next month’s ‘Climate Camp’ at Kingsnorth power station, Kent, the film exposes government tactics in reaction to enviromental protests.
Espionage, news manipulation, legal threats and even violence have become the knee-jerk response of Government and big business to the increasing and vocal concerns of environmental activists in the UK. This exclusive and powerful film exposes the extraordinary tactics being used to reframe concerned citizens engaging in their right to protest, as dangerous terrorists.
The film can be viewed on various websites including Green TV (www.green.tv) or the Ecologist website (www.theecologist.org/etv/).
