The Green Light film features Moby, Jack Canfield, Amy Goodman, Lynne Twist, Mark Victor Hansen, John Jeavons, Michael Beckwith, and many others.
It follows the story of 2 young change-makers trying to live a more sustainable life, a former Navy Seal trying to retrofit his 1950s vintage Chevy to run on biofuel, and one organic dairy farmer (Francis Thicke) trying to become Iowa's new secretary of Agriculture. Will they be able to turn idealism into reality? or will their hopes crumble in the face of old paradigms?

Who is in this movie?
What is this movie about?
The filmmakers have already interviewed:
Told through the struggles of young (and old) change-makers and interlaced with expert commentary, this feature-length documentary will try to answer the important question: "What does it really take to walk our talk, and to create a sustainable and peaceful planet?"
Films like An Inconvenient Truth, 11th Hour, Zeitgeist, and Age of Stupid all helped to educate the masses about the problems of today. However, this film isn't about the problems, this film about solutions and opportunities. Green Light isn't about gloom and doom or about guilt and fear; Green Light is about the creation of a new world, and how we can get there.
The goal of this film is to re-define our environmental issues within the context of our own personal evolution, thereby connecting two very big dots: Spirituality and Sustainability. The end goal is to establish a new understanding around what social change really is.
