SEAS THE DAY
Seas The Day is the artistic title of this film on climate change. In Seas The Day, we delve into the journey of the Kenyan Coast from before humans affected the weather and climate with the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation. Peace is lost as lives are in imminent danger from climate change effects reducing lives to floods, heat waves, acidic rains, rise in sea levels and coral reef degradation.
The effects are extrapolated greatly into the lives of humans hindering activities and economies.
However, humans are coming up with measures to curb the menace and seas control. We are later taken to a new world, new community and a new way of life full of hope for a better tomorrow.
After watching this film, the viewer will feel guilty of the part he/she took leading to the climate change and will be hopeful of a better climate by working towards fixing the cause of climate change.
