Synopsis: GREEN TALES chronicles how the sustainability movement in several cities in the Netherlands, Amsterdam, Leeuwarden, Nijmegen, Rotterdam, and Utrecht are getting louder, more powerful, and more extensive at a breakneck pace. An increasing number of citizens, artists, businesses, research institutions, and local governments are joining forces. They want to make their own living environments more sustainable and are no longer waiting on the slow decisions being made at the national level. Filmmaker Jansen brought her camera along to these locations to document various “green tales” and to inspire other cities and people all over the world. Truly an optimistic attitude toward climate change!
