Barbara Pyle
Barbara Y.E. Pyle is filmmaker and activist who pioneered the use of broadcast programming to inform critical social and environmental issues on a global scale. She co-created the animated series Captain Planet and the Planeteers, an animated series with a goal of creating a generation of environmentally-literate youth. Captain Planet became the world’s first eco-superhero. Pyle focuses on the rights of women and native peoples, and serves on several boards addressing environmental concerns. Heartfelt in her concern for and dedication to these critical world issues, Pyle often says, “Our world will not be saved by any one big decision, but by many individual choices. Choices by people like you and me. We may be the last generation to be able to make these choices”.
