THE LAST STAND examines the urgent race to save the world's last remaining ancient forests and stop global warming.

With Wade Davis, Leila Salazar, Maddie Hall and narrated by esteemed actor and environmental advocate Peter Coyote, forest defenders, frontline protestors and experts speak about the impact trees and plants have on our atmosphere, including carbon sequestration and providing oxygen for us to breathe.
