Sophie Muller: Sunny Day In this beautifully-framed and message-driven piece, acclaimed music video Sophie Muller (see this and this) invites us to ditch our energy-zapping tumble dryers and return to the easy and breezy clothesline. Muller's musical interpolation of a variety of household and outdoor sounds (dryers, electricity currents, and even birds chirping) makes for a forceful melodic reminder to get back in (clothes)line. When the sun is shining, give your clothes (and our power supply) a breath of fresh air. Tags: absolut live earth sophie muller sunny day global warming environment energy

In this dark comedic series (starring Harry Shearer and Rip Torn) the last two polar bears on earth try fitting into a world that isn't quite right for them anymore.

Kevin MacDonald: Holloway Road Where's your getaway spot? In this on-the-street documentary project, director Kevin Macdonald asks Brits walking through London's Holloway Road if they'd rather be anywhere else. Macdonald works from the premise that after the ill-effects of climate change the whole world will resemble a horn-honk-happy and smoggy Holloway Road. The respondents opine about the dehumanizing and ecologically-shaky aspects of city living, while waxing nostalgic about the need to return to nature. The film is a firm reminder that along with enjoying the spoils of city living there needs to be a healthy balance. Tags: absolut live earth kevin macdonald holloway road global warming environment

Suzanne Deakin: Round and Round The worst thing about bad habits is that they often spawn, well, more bad habits. In this brilliant Suzanne Deakin one-shot animated short, bad environmental habits (mixed with the hazards of hyped-up media coverage) can create a web of negative effects that become normalized into our daily routines. Taking a step back to see how one bad habit begets another is the first step to breaking this toxic cycle and making a change for the better. Deakin (of Monkey Dust fame) demonstrates just how we can imagine and create a healthier and more colorful world. Tags: live earth absolut suzanne deakin round animation environment global warming

Matt Mahurin: H2 Uh Oh What does our future hold? Will global warming bring about the melting of glaciers and flood coastal cities, or will it alter our climates and make waterways disappear? In this film, director Matt Mahurin tries both doomed scenarios on for size. Set in the near future, we learn that both outcomes are flip sides of the same coin -- and aren't as far-fetched as we might believe. No real need for umbrellas here. If we don't wise up, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Tags: absolut live earth matt murhurin h2 uh oh global warming environment green

Johan Renck: Cow A stomach churning look at where our meat comes from, and what toll it takes on the air we breathe and our natural world. Directed by Johan Renck, this scatological take on the environment gives us a very up-close and personal look at how the waste produced by livestock affects the ozone, climate, and natural resources in more profound ways than other pollutants, including cars and trucks. One of the only films that is as grimy as the pollution it describes -- not for the weak-stomached environmentalist. Tags: johan renck cow live earth absolut global warming poo

Joe Cole: Light Bulb How many aspiring environmentalists does it take to screw in an eco-friendly light bulb? While the task of purchasing and screwing in an energy-efficient light bulb is far from difficult, writer/director Joe Cole hilariously takes us through the process step by step in this campy instructional clip. From a living room to the hardware store and back, Light Bulb's suburban protagonists need a bit of help along the way but end up a-okay. "That wasn't so hard, was it?"
