Mission
Produce public educational documentary
Program accomplishments
- Habitat Media had a busy 2024 in preparation for the 2025 release of our documentary film Single Use Planet for PBS broadcast and for distribution to the national educational market (college and high school curricula). The film examines the ongoing difficulties policymakers in the U.S. have in effectively addressing and solving for the pollution involved with the production of single-use plastic. The preparatory work we accomplished included the completion of various technical and promotional deliverables for PBS and our educational distributor, Bullfrog Films. The work also included finalizing the licensing of all necessary legal rights for stock footage acquisitions and the purchase of Errors and Omissions insurance.Expenses $117,705
