Working Together for a #SafeClimateFuture
Beyond Crisis is part of a growing global movement of people who recognize that today's climate system is not safe and stable as it once was. Instead, our climate has been dramatically disrupted by decades of rising greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) – threatening the very safety of society today; of future generations; and sadly, of many plants and animals on our shared planet. We stand at a crossroads, with an unstable and dangerous reality ahead if we don’t work much harder to build a safe climate tomorrow.
Our work and our passion is to encourage communities to come together to better face this difficult reality, knowing that together we CAN build towards a far more sustainable, safe climate future. We do this by encouraging deep and transformative conversations around what we must do to return our global climate to a “safe zone” once again - and how our communities can be involved in leading this transformation. Clean energy and climate solutions will be the way of the future – the question is, who will lead this future to ensure it is just, and how can we get it started? We each have a role to play in leading this transformation.
Beyond Crisis is helping to lead this change by exploring exciting visions of leadership and transformation with our communities! Order the film and use the free resources below to supercharge climate engagement in your community!

Sample Film Guides and Conversation Resources
Find some sample resources below from the comprehensive Beyond Crisis Film Package, included here as free examples from that kit to help in planning your event. For access to the full Film Package, license the film through our store here.
Chapter Mind Maps
Our team has developed a range of powerful and highly useful "mind maps" that speak to the core content of each chapter in the film. These mind maps are included in the Conversations Kit that comes with the film, along with a range of relevant questions and activities that can be explored around these topic areas. You can download copies of each mind map here for use in hosting your own in-depth conversations.
Official Film Poster
Download the official Beyond Crisis poster for printing / advertising your event (a version without the festivals listed is here).
Download an editable Photoshop template for the Safe Climate Future action poster (above left) and official poster (above right), allowing you to customize the text to be specific to your event. *Note that you will need Adobe Photoshop to edit these files.
If you don't have Photoshop you can also download a high-rez JPG image of the Safe Climate Future poster, omitting the final paragraph to add your own custom text. |
Community Action Posters
Create a powerful, shareable moment of your event by downloading and printing one or more of these action posters for use.
Our recommendation is to print these on foam board or another stiff printing material, available at many local print shops (for an 18" x 24" sign on foam board, the price should be around $25) You can also download all six posters in a single handy PDF file here. We'd love for you to share back with us any photos from your event! Email team(at)beyondcrisisfilm.ca

Beyond Crisis USB / DVD
The Beyond Crisis USB and DVD are both optional add-ons to licensing the film, and purchase of either provides a worry-free means of playing the film offline, without any need for an internet connection. Note that all film licenses come with immediate online access to the film, however the USB / DVD options are a separate purchase.
These physical copies of the film are similar, but not identical. While both versions are High Definition (HD) the USB version is higher-resolution since there are less limits on video resolution on USBs vs. DVDs. Hence, if you're hoping to have the film play on a large screen or would simply like the highest possible resolution, the USB option may be preferable. Note that you will want a somewhat newer computer to play the USB off of, to ensure your computer has USB 3 ports or higher that can play at the speed required so there will be no lag in playback. Both are good options - it just depends on your own preferences. For more information see the USB / DVD section on our FAQs page here.
You can see a photo of the USB, including stylish "maple seed" screenprint, blue wrist strap and Beyond Crisis case below. The DVD case is featured on the right; both can be purchased along with a film license through our store page: for DVD click here, and for USB here.
