A filmmaker has hit out at misleading narratives around climate change ahead of her documentary's release.
Beta Bajgart came up with the idea for 'Not My Bag,' a short film which examines the impact of climate change in Crumlin, through her involvement with litter clean ups in the area. She was joined by co-producer Olga Tiernan in bringing the project to life last year.
Beta said that the suggestion that people need to do more to support the climate is frustrating when many areas don't have access to sustainable practises. She has called on the government to invest in climate friendly initiatives, such as a wider ban on single use plastic.
