This 55-minute film takes the viewer on a journey through Michigan in search of community knowledge about climate action, resilience, adaptation, and education. The documentary features a variety of solutions ranging from planting new grape varietals in vineyards to expanding passenger train service to northwest Michigan to adapting city planning in the Upper Peninsula to prepare for environmental shifts.
