Nuclear Innovation Institute’s Post

Two local filmmakers, Katie Stewart and Atticus Russwurm, are shining a spotlight on climate action through storytelling with their miniseries Green Grey Blue. This inspiring project highlights regional climate initiatives and experiences to foster environmental stewardship and community pride. Supported by the Town of The Blue Mountains Youth Climate Action Fund, the program empowers youth (ages 15-24) to lead creative and impactful climate solutions in their communities. We were thrilled to connect Katie and Atticus with Chad Richards, Senior Director of the Bruce Power Nexus Research Centre at NII, for an energy-focused episode. Chad shared insights on nuclear power’s role in the clean energy transition, environmental responsibility, and even tackled some myth-busting along the way: “There are no Homers working in the Canadian nuclear industry!” It’s inspiring to see young leaders using storytelling to drive awareness and action on climate change. Congratulations to Katie, Atticus, and all the recipients of the Youth Climate Action Fund—we can’t wait to see Green Grey Blue! #ClimateAction #YouthLeadership #CleanEnergy
