0 Coalition of the Willing is a collaborative animated film about an online war against global warming in a post-Copenhagen world. The film has been made by over two dozen animators from about the world. It explores how we could use new internet tools to leverage the powers of activists, experts, and ordinary citizens in collaborative ventures to fight climate change. Through innovative depictions of swarm activity and social revolution, Coalition of the Willing makes the case for a new generation of internet activism, and how to bring the fight against global warming to the people.
