The virtual Livable Planet Film Festival, which begins streaming Thursday, April 22, is the latest event from Jeff Ross, whose growing portfolio of festivals includes SF Indiefest, DocFest and the genre festival Another Hole in the Head.
A celebration of environmental films, it may seem like a stretch for Ross — until you see one title that is a nod to his previous ventures: “Slaxx,” a horror comedy about a pair of killer jeans.

"The Toxic Pigs of Fukushima" a contender for the Oscar Awards « nuclear-news


 
 
Bill Gates, while motivated to help fight climate change, has also long been trying to make a success of his nuclear technology company  Terra Power.   The climate emergency presents him with the perfect opportunity  to promote this, and especially, to get tax–payer funding to do it, as he suggests in his new book.
Elon Musk and Bill Gates: beware of gurus toting solutions to climate change
Elon Musk  has grand plans to save the world. Bill Gates has just published his book  ”How To Avoid a Climate Disaster”.   They both envisage tax-payer funding for their solutions.  But beware of gurus toting the solution to the planet’s crisis.

To February 1st – nuclear news


Climate crisis: world is at its hottest for at least 12,000 years – study.  Scientists say temperatures globally at highest level since start of human civilisation.
On nuclear news – 
 there’s a kind of hush, all over the world.…..     Well, I suppose that this could be seen, in one twisted way – as good news. This is the fact that the coronavirus pandemic is putting the brakes on nuclear development, in UK, and the USA.   As always, we don’t know much about its impact on Russia and China.
Still, the global nuclear lobby keeps up its unrelenting propaganda on nuclear power  as the (false) cure for climate change. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0poNgL57kc&feature=emb_title         Also distressing is the move for nuclear reactors to be permitted to operate for 100 years, a cunning, but dangerous, way to avoid costs of decommissioning them,

Radiation exposure was at the forefront of cinematographer Simon Niblett’s mind as he spent time filming Otto Bell’s “The Toxic Pigs of Fukushima.” Bell, who was trying for a baby at the time, was also concerned – they carried radiation monitors.
Bell’s documentary Oscar contender, “The Toxic Pigs of Fukushima,” follows a group of local hunters who have been enlisted to dispose of radiated wild boars that now roam the abandoned streets and buildings of Fukushima, Japan after a 2011 earthquake caused a nuclear meltdown.

Almost ten years ago to the day, a 9.1 magnitude, undersea megathrust earthquake created a 120-foot tsunami that swept across coastal towns and villages of East Japan, most notably triggering Level 7 meltdowns at three reactors in the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant complex. On March 11, 2011, a radioactive cloud the size of Connecticut spewed across this picturesque prefecture and beyond, sending over 200,000 residents fleeing for their lives. Prior to the pandemic I visited Fukushima with a small film crew to find out how life had changed for the handful of brave citizens who had chosen to remain and eke out an existence in the shadow of this tragic disaster.
