WeAreTELLAn initiative by Creation Flick

Our impact. Stories that move the world to act.

Through WeAreTELL, we point our cameras at the most important story of our time. We go where the climate crisis is a daily reality and bring back the voices, faces and truths the world needs to hear.

Why we give back

Our craft, put to work for the planet

Creation Flick spends every day telling other people’s stories. WeAreTELL is how we give that craft back: an initiative by Creation Flick to spearhead climate and environmental storytelling, led by people who live the stories they tell.

It sits at the crossroads of science, policy, indigenous knowledge and human experience. It documents the crisis, and the fight back: the grassroots breakthroughs, the ancient wisdom proving itself modern, the communities refusing to disappear quietly.

Awareness without hope is just despair. WeAreTELL delivers both.

Four letters, one mission

TELL stands for Telling Earth’s Life & Legacy. Select a letter to see what it means.

The mission: to tell the stories of Earth’s people, places and ecosystems, preserving their legacy and inspiring positive climate action.

How the world hears the climate crisis

  • A rainfall chart.
  • A temperature anomaly.
  • A loss and damage estimate.
  • The farmer watching his land dry up.
  • The grandmother who remembers when the river ran full.
  • The young inventor building solutions from what little she has.

Behind every statistic is a life, a family and a community. WeAreTELL doesn’t speak in data. It speaks in people. Flip the switch to hear the difference.

A story told with honesty can shift a heart, move a nation and reshape the future.

Blair ReznickExecutive Director, WeAreTELL

WeAreTELL was born from lived experience: polluted air, unsafe water and disappearing green spaces, and the quiet resilience of communities fighting for dignity. It exists to make sure the people on the frontlines of the climate crisis are not spoken for. They speak for themselves.
