• Humans have become increasingly reliant on transport options that can cause harm to our environment. One of the main environmental impacts of transport is its contribution to climate change.

2040 is an innovative feature documentary that looks to the future, but is vitally important NOW! Director Damon Gameau embarks on a journey to explore what the future could look like by the year 2040 if we simply embraced the best solutions already available to us to improve our planet and shifted them rapidly into the mainstream.
