Yahoo and Google video search

Yahoo and Google are now offering search engines for videos. A way to look for films on environmental issues?

Media Venture Collective

Media Venture Collective is a fund of the Rudolf Steiner Foundation, in partnership with a super-group of activist organizations, focused on aggregating tax-deductible donations and grants, small and large, from viewers like you into "program-related investments" in high-impact, public-interest media enterprises.

Film movement

Film movement is an original system of distribution of independent films. For a monthly subscription you receive one dvd.

The video project

For 20 years the Video Project has been a leading distributor of environmental videos about the fate of our planet.Adam Werbach is now part of their team.
Distribution seems to remain fairly traditional.
Bios still mention his hosting an environmental tv show, the green thin line but I was unable to find any info, site or blog.
 

Spiritual Cinema Circle

This month's issue of Evergreenmonhtly tells about the Spiritual Cinema Circle, a home-DVD monhtly subscription service that sends its members a DVD compilation of spiritually uplifting shorts, documentaries and fiction features.
From their January selection we especially noticed Ryans well.

The Cineroute project

Here is how the National Film Board of Canada describes its Cineroute project.

Green planet films library

Green planet films library looks like an interesting project, sort of a blockbusters service for environmental films. It is an online dvd rental library.
Is it economically viable? Can producers be convinced to offer their documentaries that way? Are there enough people willing to use such a service?
At this point the catalog still looks small.

Read how Suzanne Harle got the idea of founding this dvd library by attending a film festival.

My guess is it would take the involvement of several big and many small organizations to build a significant enough network and clientele basis.

The service could also provide additional info about new films.
