The Longest Day: On the Climate Crisis Frontline

4 x 48 HD
Broadcaster:  CNA

Climate change is more than a set of abstract projections and statistics. It's the daily reality for millions of people across the world, living on the frontlines of the climate crisis.


In this award-winning series, we follow people confronting climate challenges in their daily lives as they unfold over 24 hours. We witness farmers and urban dwellers struggling with water shortage in the Mekong Delta and Jakarta, coastal communities in Indonesia's Sumba island and the Sundarbans facing rapidly rising sea levels, farmers in Vietnam looking for solutions to unprecedented long droughts, and families struggling with extreme heatwaves in Delhi's slums.


The Longest Day is a snapshot of the climate crisis in action - told through the voices of farmers, health workers, city residents and displaced families. By emphasising on-the-ground responses to complex challenges, the series is an empowering and relatable portrait of diverse and resilient responses to the biggest challenge of our time.
