Chosen to air internationally as MTV's 1997 Earth Day Special, Connect carries one of the most important messages of our time: we can make a difference in improving the world's environmental and social problems. Hosted by Michael Stipe of the band R.E.M., Connect is filled with moving imagery from around the world and was taped live at an international gathering of youth activists. These young leaders speak boldly about our power to make a difference for the earth.

Connect features young leaders from twenty countries—leaders like Adam Werbach, 23-year old president of the Sierra Club and Melissa Poe who, at age 16, sends her environmental newsletter to over 3 million people. Entertaining and informative, Connect weaves music, diverse imagery and statements by these young leaders into a compelling story of young people caring for the earth. They share their successes, concerns, knowledge, skills and inspiration for our common future.

Connect is an educational video designed to empower young people towards greater environmental awareness and to be a source of solutions that everyone can adopt to help the planet. We can make a difference.
