LISTEN UP! YOUTH MEDIA NETWORK
![BEYOND GREEN: THE CLOUD FACTORY cover image BEYOND GREEN: THE CLOUD FACTORY cover image](https://www.kidsfirst.org/kidsfirst/images/db/titles/210322.jpg)
Well produced short documentary by a high school student that shows how effective youth activism can be in changing situations that adults have given up on.
When Marisol Becerra was a little girl, she thought that the huge smokestacks in her community in Chicago were a "Cloud Factory." Years later, she realized that the Cloud Factory is a coal burning power plant, threatening the health of her community. Marisol and a few friends mobilize youth to educate the people of "Little Village" to take action and demand change - to close the Cloud Factory once and for all.
