HACK THE PLANET

USING TECHNOLOGY TO SAVE THE AFRICAN RAINFOREST

Produced by: ONE O SEVEN MEDIA HOUSE

In this documentary we follow Tim and Thijs, who dedicate their lives to deploying their technology in Gabon in an effort to help save the African forest elephant population which is on the brink of extinction. If the forest elephant would go extinct, the African rainforest will soon follow, which would be a major blow in the global fight against climate change. We see them developing and testing their systems in the Netherlands and once finished they make an effort to deploy their system in Lope, Gabon. We see them work closely with the rangers and the local community and we get to know the rangers that dedicate their lives to the protection of wildlife.

The ultimate question is: does their system work? Or do they have to get back to the drawing board to make a real change?
