It explores how the films offer a variety of responses to the questions raised by environmental change: about the future of the countryside, the relationship between health and industrial pollution, the role of corporations and the politics of energy and climate. Offering a coherent analysis of imaginative, controversial and high-profile documentary films such as \u003cem\u003eInto Eternity\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe Yes Men Fix the World\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eAn Inconvenient Truth\u003c\/em\u003e, the book divides the responses into contemplation, irony and passionate argument, and the recruitment of the filmmaking process itself into the campaign to bring about better change. Along with analysis that includes the wider context of environmental documentary filmmaking, about local rural communities in Britain and Europe, \u003cem\u003eGreen Documentary\u003c\/em\u003e underlines the important role of documentary film in the on-going public debate about the environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e'Green Documentary offers a robust introduction to the evolving subfield of ecomedia and documentary cinema's place within it.
