Azulita’s short documentary ‘Evidence of Us’ (2021) reveals the long shadow of pollution, overconsumption and waste cast by plastic use. From the bottom of the Grand Canyon to our oceans to our own backyards, this short documentary produced by QMedia questions what it means to be good stewards of our shared home. Our National Parks and Monuments are experiencing record visitation numbers. But as we encourage the public to experience these treasures, increased use has created an escalation in litter and plastic microtrash. ‘Evidence of Us’ investigates how legislative measures could provide lasting protection to these landscapes while creating a culture shift towards a Leave No Trace ethic founded on minimizing our footprint, reducing consumption and using reusable products. The Azulita Project is proud to be a convening partner of the #PlasticFreePresident campaign that names priority actions to address plastic pollution during President Biden’s first year. https://plasticfreepresident.org/ #BreakFreeFromPlastic Pollution Act of 2021 https://www.breakfreefromplastic.org/pollution-act/ This federal bill builds upon successful statewide laws across the U.S. and outlines practical plastic reduction strategies to realize a healthier, more sustainable, and more equitable future. The BFFPPA represents the most comprehensive set of policy solutions to the plastic pollution crisis ever introduced in Congress.

Beach communities around the world suffer from an abundance of plastic that tragically ends up in the oceans at an alarming rate – over 8 million metric tons per year. Join the founders of the Azulita Project, as they share information on how a small community is making a difference.

Flagstaff sends more than 1.4 million pounds of material to the recycling center each month, but about 1/3 of that cannot actually be recycled and goes to the landfill anyway, where it will remain forever. And even the stuff that can be recycled isn't easy to get rid of. It's expensive to sort and process, and then it must be sold on the market, where prices aren't always favorable. And the fact remains that most plastics and other materials that we discard cannot be recycled at all. A better solution is to REDUCE OUR USE. Flagstaff, let's tackle this problem where it starts--with us! Go here to learn more: plasticfreeflagstaff.org Produced and directed by Q Media.

Our oceans are in trouble. Plastic pollution is greater than ever and Earthlings are slow to change their ways.  A recent report suggesting there may be more plastic than fish in our oceans by the year 2050 has generated much discussion among the scientific community;  Is this truly possible? Can we project to 2050? In this animation, we follow one brave extra-terrestrial in his crusade to save Earth. By using this shock narrative, he takes us on a journey through time; from the past, to the present and to a possible 2050 to illustrate what the world's oceans might look like if behavior remains unchanged. For the alien, this is 'The Last Straw'. Will he succeed in encouraging Earthlings to change their ways? Directed by Paul Perreault
