The Great Bear Rainforest is a beautiful and pristine region in Northern British Columbia that is facing a number of conservation threats from encroaching energy initiatives. The most potentially damaging being a plan to run a pipeline from Alberta, Canada; bringing with it fleets of oil tankers to transport crude oil to Asia. Equal parts surfing and environmental journalism, “Tipping Barrels” is a short film following surfers Arran and Reid Jackson as they explore the Great Bear Rainforest to learn more about the region and the issues confronting it.
A New Englander through and through, Drew grew up in Connecticut / New Hampshire and got over educated in Boston. He also lived on a beach in Southern California for some years. Film, photography, music and literature monopolize his time these days. Drew lives in Brooklyn, NY, eats too many cheeseburgers at the Commodore and hopes to carry on simply one day on a big piece of land by the sea without the computer or YouTube.
