COP26: The Plan That Came From The Bottom Up
Screening + Panel Discussion
Sunday 24 October, 2021 2pm
Tickets: £6.50 – Buy tickets
Part film essay, part documentary, The Plan tells the story of how a group of British engineers came to be nominated for the 1979 Nobel Peace Prize when they decided to make wind turbines instead of components for military jets.
This Grierson Award-nominated film looks at how the eco-pioneering Lucas Aerospace workers took control for the sake of the planet. Their heroism has been largely forgotten, but as climate crisis dominates public debate there are vital lessons to be learnt from their story. This two-part film will be followed by a panel/audience discussion on the role of workplace/community plans today.
