Eco Warriors (2012)

Coined by the US Federal Bureau of Investigation, the term "eco-terrorism" often faces accusations that it only serves to criminalize or demonize environmentally motivated protest actions. Today, a protester who was once labeled an eco-activist can be rebranded as an "eco-terrorist," and environmentalism is often branded as "eco-terrorism." The Eco-Warriors documentary features individuals who have been active in environmental fields for most of their lives, with some even willing to risk imprisonment to protect planet Earth. The impact of the term "ecoterrorism" can be seen in the lives of activists such as Tre Arrow, Ruth Masters, Tzeporah Berman (Friends of Clayoquot Sound), Alexandra Morton, Derrick Jensen (Deep Green Resistance), Zoe Blunt (Eco Warriors Legal Trust), and Ingmar Lee. Despite adversity, many activists continue their efforts and even educate others about resilience and activism.
