Hi friends!
We have really exciting news to share: “YOUTH v GOV” - the independent feature-length, award-winning documentary by acclaimed Director Christi Cooper, Barrelmaker Productions, and Vulcan Productions about our federal case, Juliana v. United States - will begin streaming globally on Netflix starting April 29th!
This is an incredible opportunity to watch the story of the Juliana 21 and their critical climate case, all around the world!

You Can Play a Big Role in This Critical Moment in Just Two Simple Steps
The global release of this film - streaming in over 30 languages worldwide - will be the first opportunity millions of people around the world will have to see the stories of these brave young Americans. For millions around the world, it will be their first time hearing about this landmark climate case. And it will be the first time they learn about Our Children’s Trust and the critical work we do to help young climate leaders secure their legal rights to a safe climate.
Every person who sees the film can become an ally, an advocate, and a voice speaking out alongside and in support of the Juliana youth. While the plaintiffs await a court decision - any day now! - that, if favorable, could put them back on the path to trial, we need as many people as we can possibly reach to be ready to speak, advocate, and act in support of these amazing young climate leaders.
You can help us make it happen this weekend with two very simple actions:
1. Watch the film on April 29th and over the weekend! The more people who watch the film in the first few days following its premiere on Netflix, the more frequently it may appear as a suggested option for others to discover and watch - so please watch it this Friday and over the weekend! We’ll send you a direct link to the film later this week. In the meantime, add the film to your Netflix list tonight by searching for YOUTH v GOV on the Netflix site or app. Also, keep an eye out for a Watch Party Toolkit we’ll share with our community for ideas and instructions on how you can host your own in-person or virtual watch party.
2. Tell others to watch it too! Share the film with everyone you know: friends, family, neighbors, co-workers. Post about it on social media (we’ll send you a social media toolkit to help with this a bit later this week too!), email it to folks, send texts, or make calls. Tell everyone you know to add the film to their Netflix list now and watch the film this weekend!
Join Us On Thursday for a Community “Call to Action” Chat
To help us kick off our efforts to share and promote the film, join us at 3pm Pacific / 6pm Eastern on Thursday for a quick 30 minute chat with Julia Olson (Chief Legal Counsel at Our Children’s Trust and lead counsel in Juliana v. United States) and Erin Barnhart (Chief Communications Officer at Our Children’s Trust). Come together with fellow supporters for a community call to action to learn more about how you can help spread the word about the film and why it is so important for people around the world to see and share the film in this crucial climate moment.

Help us spread the word so that people around the world learn about their case and the durable, sustainable solution to the accelerating climate crisis that these young people are seeking in our courts.
