Science Photo Library in the UK has collaborated with internationally acclaimed film director Liz Courtney to launch The Climate Library.
• Liz Courtney, an accidental film director and passionate storyteller, embarked on a transformative journey after
accompanying 40 teenagers from around the world to Antarctica 12 years ago. Leaving behind her stilettos for snow boots,
she employed her 20+ years of experience in brand strategy and communication to lead the narrative on social change in the
climate sector. Through her innovative, science-led documentaries on climate change, she aims to inform communities,
governments and policy planners about the imperative need for long-term solutions in high-risk regions.
SPL say: ‘This ground-breaking endeavour features a remarkable collection of climate footage from the important 6-part
documentary series The Tipping Points. Over 1,000 videos, photographs and animated sequences will be presented during the core launch phase.’
‘The Tipping Points series, capturing over 500 hours of unique footage, has served as the catalyst for this innovative
collaboration. Inspired by the research of Professor Tim Lenton from Exeter University, the series explores the critical tipping
points within the climate system.’
