With a foundational perspective that more sustainable policies are imperative and that there are effective renewable and sustainable options to employ regionally\, nationally and globally\, Todd has dedicated himself to the arts in creating entertaining and educational film\, music and events. \n\nIn Cresta Alta\, Todd takes a more urgent approach\, following scientists as they study glaciers and observe firsthand the rapid changes happening to these ecosystems. “Cresta Alta was an adventure story\, a research expedition\, and a personal journey all in one\,” Todd said. “I wanted to tell the story of these scientists and show how their research is helping us understand the very real effects of climate change. It’s all about trying to make the science more accessible\, but also making it emotionally compelling\, so people can understand why this is so important.” – The Risan Project Tour: Todd Johnson Brings Environmental Advocacy to Fairbanks \nThe University of Alaska Fairbanks Sun Star\, By Amber McCain \n“Todd’s film documenting his travels\, his interviews with leading scientists across the world\, and the amazing cinematography was a great experience for our students. There were multiple entry points for discussion\, including from scientific\, creative arts\, geopolitical\, and humanistic angles. I highly recommend Todd’s work for any school looking to bring real-world examples of the impact of climate change\, and what the next generation can do about it.” \nChristopher Young\, North Country Union High School Principal\, Newport\, VT \n  \n  \nCresta Alta Film Website\nwww.crestaaltafilm.com\n\nCresta Alta Film Trailer \nhttps://youtu.be/BGwX82nF54Q \n  \n\n  \nCresta Alta Film Behind the Scenes \nhttps://youtu.be/Tctx_MMaKmQ
