Pangea Day taps the power
of film to strengthen tolerance
and compassion while uniting
millions of people to build
a better future.
In
a world where people are
often divided by borders,
difference, and conflict,
it's easy to lose sight
of what we all have in
common. Pangea Day seeks
to overcome that - to
help people see themselves
in others - through the
power of film.
On
May 10, 2008 - Pangea
Day - sites in Cairo,
Dharamsala, Kigali, London,
New York City, Ramallah,
Rio de Janeiro, and Tel
Aviv will be videoconferenced
live to produce a program
of powerful films, visionary
speakers, and uplifting
music.
The
program will be broadcast
live to the world through
the Internet, television,
digital cinemas, and mobile
phones.
Of
course, movies alone can't
change the world. But
the people who watch them
can. So following May
10, 2008, Pangea Day organizers
will facilitate community-building
activities around the
world by connecting inspired
viewers with numerous
organizations which are
already doing groundbreaking
work.

Geoff
Lawton's Greening
the Desert video “You
can fix all the world’s
problems, in a garden.
You can solve them all
in a garden. You can solve
all your pollution problems,
and all your supply line
needs in a garden. And
most people today actually
don’t know that,
and that makes most people
very insecure.”
