The Biodiversity Foundation of the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge (MITECO) participates, through the LIFE INTEMARES project, in the docuseries ‘Hope! We are on time’, by environmental communicator Javier Peña, creator of the channel ‘Hope!’. The docuseries, made up of 6 chapters, has premiered on the public television platform RTVE Play, where the first two episodes are already accessible, and a new chapter will be released every Tuesday.
Throughout its six chapters, the production offers a positive message for the future and shows real and hopeful solutions to the global climate crisis. To do this, the production team has traveled to 17 countries on four continents to identify and record experiences that not only restore life on Earth, but also improve the quality of life of the people who inhabit it.
Behind each solution are real human stories with innovative projects that have managed to regenerate degraded lands and oceans, reinvent energy and generate abundance, justice and resilience.
The docuseries is inspired by Project Drawdown, a global plan designed by scientist Paul Hawken, one of the experts interviewed, along with international figures such as Jane Goodall, Christiana Figueres and Fernando Valladares.
The participation of LIFE INTEMARES takes place in chapter six, in which it has had the collaboration of the Spanish Office for Climate Change of MITECO within the framework of the demonstrative experience promoted in the project for the analysis of risks against climate change and design of adaptation measures in five marine protected areas of the Natura 2000 Network.
This initiative has explored reducing the risks arising from climate change to the values of marine areas, acting on threat, exposure and vulnerability and increasing the resilience of ecosystems and society. The action has been funded by the PIMA Adapta program, promoted by MITECO.
