As part of PGA’s work to make productions more economically and environmentally sustainable, we’ve just  launched our Sustainability Tool Kit for Producers. The Tool Kit guides producers on how to demonstrate the business case for sustainability, embed climate awareness in each storytelling phase, and engage and support the entire crew in realizing sustainable solutions. It was developed in collaboration with the Inter-Guild and Union Sustainability Alliance.
