Movie: ‘The Researcher’–Gianluca Grimalda on why activism must be stubborn in the face of resistance

In this ClimateGenn episode I speak with Dr Gianluca Grimalda, the researcher who shot into the limelight when he was sacked for refusing to fly back from Papua New Guinea. I met Gianluca at the Films For Future Festival in Zurich where his movie was getting an early screening. He represents a growing number of scientific researchers who are prepared to take action to draw attention to what the science is telling us - namely that we are barreling towards total global climatic disaster. Grimalda is calling for a global strike by scientists in protest of decades of allowing special interests and profits to override what is best for society.The Researcher documentary is now available for streaming and download on platforms including YouTube, Amazon and iTunes.
