PAVING OVER PARADISE is a documentary about the importance and loss of wetlands in Southern Ontario. About three quarters of the wetlands that once existed in southern Ontario are now gone. This documentary explores how we we restore these vital habitats that are also some of our best natural defenses against the effects of climate change.
THE FOREVER CHEMICALS is a documentary about PFAS. The water-resistant properties of countless products we use every day is made possible by a group of toxic chemicals known as PFAS. Just how dangerous are these “forever chemicals” and are there safer alternatives?
