Biography
I was a tree surgeon for years before going to Uni at 25 and studying animation. I realised in 2003-ish that sod all was happening about climate change and that if a job's worth doing, then do it yourself. Ever since then climate change has crept into every nook and cranny of my life. I graduated from the Royal College of Art's Animation MA in June 2008 and am now trying to avoid making adverts for a living. Please have a watch of my graduation film, here: www.wakeupfreakout.org , which I was already working on when I discovered the Age of Stupid.
