‘Don't Look Up’ director donates $4 million to fight climate change
20.09.2022 - 20:25 / foxnews.com
In director Adam McKay's "Don't Look Up," a 2021 satire about two scientists who try in vain to warn the world about a planet-destroying comet, the scientists' desperate plea for action ultimately doesn't work. But don't take that as McKay's view on the power of activism to change the course of the climate crisis, the existential threat his movie was really about. McKay on Tuesday plans to announce a $4 million donation to the Climate Emergency Fund, an organization dedicated to getting money into the hands of activists engaged in disruptive demonstrations urging swifter, more aggressive climate action.
It's the largest donation the fund has received since it started in 2019, and McKay's biggest personal gift. He joined the organization's board in August. Climate change is "extremely alarming, extremely frightening, and quickly becoming the only thing I’m thinking about on a daily basis, even as I’m writing scripts and directing or producing," McKay said in a recent interview with The Associated Press.
From the overthrowing of monarchies to labor movements and the Civil Rights Era, activism is an "incredibly kinetic, powerful, transformative" force that's created change throughout history, he said. Movie director Adam McKay of "Don’t Look Up" announced his $4 million donation to the Climate Emergency Fund on Sept. 20, 2022.

Explosive ‘Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’ Season 3 Cold Open Shows a Shrieking Jen Shah and Vicious Rifts Among Former Best Friends (EXCLUSIVE)
Kate Aurthur editor The cold open of the Sept. 28 Season 3 premiere of “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” featured at the bottom of this post harks back to a more innocent time for the Bravo cast members — before it then reveals how their lives and friendships have exploded during the show’s run. The scene begins in December 2019 with the first confessionals the women filmed for the show’s freshman season, as they introduce themselves, and present their relationships to other cast members. Jen Shah — who in July of this year pleaded guilty to criminal fraud charges, and will be sentenced (likely to prison) in November — attempts to explain her job, which she calls “direct response marketing.” As the audience now knows, Shah was in fact — as she’s now admitted — a high-up figure in a telemarketing scheme that defrauded tons of (often elderly) people. She was arrested during the filming of Season 2, practically on camera. And as Shah protested her innocence, the second season made much hay of her legal issues.
