Abstract
The distribution and use of Planning for Floods by the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) spread the message of public environmental responsibility well beyond the immediate community of the Mississippi River. It anticipates by more than 30 years the present concerns about global warming.
Significantly, it suggests positive action rather than just "ain't it awful". The film was commissioned by the EDF, an organization founded by Dennis Puleston and others, to raise public awareness of dangers inherent in the way we were responding to the environment a half-century ago.
