Story Line
“Leaving a habitable planet for future generations means taking on the greed of the fossil fuel industry and aggressively transitioning to energy efficiency and renewable sources of power. “The Light Won’t Dim” serves as an urgent reminder that we must transform our energy system away from fossil fuels NOW.”
- Senator Bernie Sanders
“The Light Won’t Dim” is a 30-minute documentary exploring the promise and urgency of solar power in a time of climate crisis. From Puerto Rico’s Centro Buen Pastor, where solar panels became a lifeline after Hurricane Maria, to New York City schools and small-town rooftops, the film shows how communities are taking energy into their own hands. Featuring interviews with Senator Bernie Sanders and climate leader Bill McKibben alongside local leaders and experts, the film reveals both the obstacles and the unstoppable momentum of clean energy — a story of resilience, equity, and hope for the future.
“The Light Won’t Dim” is the official documentary of Sun Day, which consisted of over 500 events in 49 states on September 21st 2025, and multiple states and cities declaring Sun Day a holiday.
