Hungry for Change

A double bill film screening of the latest documentary in the Cornwall’s Climate Stories series

Helston Climate Action Group is delighted to be taking part in the launch of the latest film in the Cornwall Climate Stories series. Hungry for Change is the sixth film in the award-winning Cornwall’s Climate Stories series, which looks at various issues around how climate change is impacting Cornwall – while showcasing the inspiring stories of what local people are doing to address the challenges coming our way.

The series has been praised by Sir David Attenborough, who said: “The need you have identified is indeed a real one, and your films meet it very well. Many congratulations.”

Hungry for Change, the latest documentary from charity Cornwall Climate Care, takes a fascinating and inspiring look at a whole range of stories, from the gleaners picking ‘waste’ crops in our fields, to projects growing food in unusual places and a microbiologist keen to get us all eating low-carbon insects. We will be showing HUNGRY FOR CHANGE, along with FOOD FOR THOUGHT, which combine to provide vital information on the way climate change is already impacting on food and farming in Cornwall, and how we can respond to future challenges.

The screening will be followed by Q&A sessions with the filmmakers and some of the film’s expert contributors.

Screenings will include tastings of some unusual climate-friendly foods shown in the film, which viewers will almost certainly never have tried before.

Tickets are available without charge, but we will be collecting donations on the night for local food projects helping our community respond to food waste and food justice: Helston Community Larder; Helston & Lizard Foodbank and Cornwall Gleaning Network. Please come along and support their important work!
