UnchainedTV has earned a Bronze Anthem Award in the Sustainability, Environment, & Climate category for its 25-minute documentary The Climate Healers. The win spotlights a plant-based solution message aimed at climate change, food insecurity, biodiversity loss and public health.

Why it matters: - The Bronze Anthem Award gives UnchainedTV national and international visibility for a documentary tied to climate, food and animal-rights advocacy. - The recognition signals growing attention to messaging that links environmental harm, public health and food systems. - The award places the nonprofit network among purpose-driven campaigns highlighted by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences.

What happened: - UnchainedTV won a Bronze Anthem Award in the Sustainability, Environment, & Climate (Campaign — Non-Profit) category. - The International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences gave the award for the network’s mini-documentary project, The Climate Healers. - The announcement was made from Hollywood, California, on Nov. 12, 2026.

The details: - The Climate Healers is a 25-minute documentary. - The film argues that a transition to a global plant-based food system could help address climate change, deforestation, wildlife extinction, food insecurity, lifestyle diseases and animal suffering. - The documentary centers on systems analyst, engineer and Climate Healers founder Dr. Sailesh Rao. - Dr. Rao warns in the film: "Right now we lead our ordinary lives and the planet dies." - Dr. Rao also says: "If the ecology collapses, the economy is going to collapse as well." - The film says the world is extracting six times as much food as needed while 800 million people go hungry. - Dr. Rao frames the food system as one that produces excess for wealthy consumers while leaving many people sick or underfed. - The film presents an alternative future Dr. Rao calls "Planet B," which he describes as a world that stays within Earth’s natural planetary boundaries. - The project credits list Jane Velez-Mitchell as executive producer and narrator, Dr. Sailesh Rao as founder of Climate Healers, executive producer and systems analyst, Erik Crown as producer, videographer and editor, and Sierra Williams as producer.

Between the lines: - The award underscores how climate storytelling is increasingly being packaged around systems change rather than single-issue environmental messaging. - The film’s message is explicitly ideological and solutions-focused, connecting ecological repair to plant-based living and spiritual awakening. - The documentary also reflects UnchainedTV’s broader brand as a nonprofit streaming network centered on plant-based living, animal rights and environmental sustainability.
