BBC Boss Tim Davie To Urge The TV Industry To Put Sustainability Content Front & Center: “We Have A Huge Creative Opportunity”

Deadline has obtained a sneak peek of a video address Davie will give at the fourth edition of Climate Creatives, a cross-industry event organized for the BBC that gathers commissioners, production staff and storytellers to examine how the industry can come together to find sustainability solutions. Producers and commissioners are increasingly tuning into how to create climate-related content that sits outside of the docs and current affairs space, whether that be in entertainment or drama or kids programming. “I would love to see this topic at the heart of more discussion.” Sounding an industry-wide sustainability klaxon, he will add: “What really sets this industry apart is how we can communicate and how we can rewire our programming so that we have a positive impact.”
