I don’t write screenplays, but perhaps you do? If so, consider this new grant from The Black List, the NRDC’s (Natural Resources Defense Council) Rewrite the Future program, The Redford Center, The CAA Foundation, and NBCUniversal.
That’s a lot of organizations getting behind climate storytelling. If you want in, here’s how!
2025 NRDC Climate Storytelling Fellowship | The Black List
We need it all–the bleak and the inspirational, the fantasies, dramas, comedies, and rom-coms. It is the power and privilege of writers to show us how climate change is transforming our world, and to help us find a path to salvation. This program aims to support well told stories with climate themes that entertain viewers and allow them to engage with the range of emotions caused by the climate crisis.
Application deadline is December 05, 2024.
Even if you aren’t into screenplays or don’t want to navigate The Black List sign up/apply for a fee waiver process, you may want to check out the list of Writer’s Resources at the bottom of the description page.
Examples include the Sustainability Onscreen Tipsheet and The Last Laugh: Comedy in the Age of Climate Change.
Because whatever else happens, the future needs laughter.
