Glacial Balance is an educational DVD that highlights global interconnectedness, and human adaptation to rapidly changing environmental conditions.  It encourages learners not only to develop their understanding of climate change, but also to link more closely to human activity and experience, including geographical processes of drought, famine, and migration. In connecting students to distant places and raising awareness of people's experiences of climate change impacts 'on the ground', Glacial Balance can promote reflection and discussion on what melting glaciers in South America can teach us about wider impacts of climate change, and our responses to these on personal and societal levels.

Aside from its availability on DVD and VOD, the film will have three free screenings at the European Geosciences Union in Vienna:

Mon, 28 April, 12:15-14:00
Thu, 01 May, 17:15-19:00
Fri, 02 May, 10:30-12:00
