I saw a movie, and the world collapsed December 9, 2009

Jessica Rayburn and G.R. Mantard have collaborated to create a new comic on climate change.

To mark the crucial UN climate summit in Copenhagen, they have published the comic online with free access to all.

‘I saw a movie, and the world collapsed’ tells G.R. Mantard’s own story of how he was inspired by climate change film Age of Stupid to calculate his carbon footprint and learn how to reduce it.

The story personally engages with the reader to communicate the science, the policy and the personal dilemmas. It climaxes by showing how low-carbon living is positive and enjoyable, and urges the reader to take action at personal, community and political level.
