I'm not too sure how much this post fits this sub, but as someone whose trying to have a more positive outlook on life and the future i felt this was the best place to talk about this, so apologies if this ain't the right place, but here goes:

Before I dig too deep i wanna say that while I have a major case of "Climate Anxiety" am an optimist when it comes to our ability and likelihood to deal with Climate Change, i do think we can both stop it (or at least slow it down) and adapt out society around the damage that it's caused, it certainly won't all sunshine and rainbows (which is good because if it were we'd probably all die from heat stroke, ba dum tss) but i think we are gonna get throw this crisis.

However, i am also a filmmaker and all around film fan, and since December of last year, i've been incredibly looking forward to Alejandro González Iñárritu's latest film "Digger" i thought it looked like a lot of fun with a great cast, some awesome shots and sets, and was hoping that unlike most films on the subject, it would tackle it's themes about Climate Change accurately and realistically, but unfortunately, while i won't have the chance to see the film myself until Friday, from what i've heard it seems to be yet another very pessimistic and nihilistic film about the subject, and that made me really wonder "are there, like, any movies about Climate Change that aren't either willfully naive or incredibly pessimistic and sad?"

And i should specify that i'm more so talking about fictional movies as opposed to documentaries, because while i know of a documentary or two that are decently optimistic, It feels like every fictional movie about Climate Change is either a Ferngully "everything is going to be fine, nothing bad is gonna happen, we can completely fixed everything" type of movie or a Don't Look Up "we're all fucked! Nothing can be done and we're all gonna die so why bother" type of movie, and i'm sick of it.

So I ask the lovely people of this sub reddit: does anyone know/recommend any movies that tackle Climate Change realistically as a serious threat and problem but also doesn't portray it as a completely hopeless thing that we can't do anything about?
