Story

In the weeks before the 2015 UN Conference on Climate Change, Riding Lights toured Baked Alaska to over 50 venues across the UK. 

Many audience members urged Riding Lights to turn the show into a series of short, punchy films, free to download for schools and other audiences.

Created out of concern for the devastating challenges climate change presents for life across the planet, the show stimulated a personal response to this urgent crisis. It was commissioned by Christian Aid, Operation Noah and the Diocese of Lichfield.

There was an extraordinary level of response. Audiences were encouraged to write messages to their local MPs calling for action. Over the course of the tour, thousands of these were delivered in person by volunteers.

CAN YOU HELP US?

We need sufficient funds to make these entertaining films available, at least for an initial period, as a free download to schools and other groups where teaching and discussion about climate change can take place.
