ABOUT
‘NATURE IS
SPEAKING’
If nature could speak, what would it tell us? This
question was the inspiration for Conservation
International’s “Nature Is Speaking” series of short films,
each told by a part of nature. The films are voiced by
acclaimed actors, including CI’s Vice Chair, Harrison
Ford, as “The Ocean.”
Launched in October 2014, “Nature Is
Speaking” has generated over 2 billion
impressions and 50 million video views.
Nature’s voice is heard in
more than 40 countries
The United Nations invited Conservation International
to screen the films at the Paris climate talks in
December 2015 to ensure that nature’s voice was
heard and could help influence the outcomes of the
historic climate agreement. People are joining us in
listening to nature — and taking action.
“Nature Is Speaking” films have been quoted by heads
of state and tweeted by Oprah Winfrey. Most important,
the campaign has inspired tens of millions of people
around the world with the message that nature doesn’t
need people — people need nature.
