如果連各國政府們都無法解決氣候危機了，那世上到底還有誰能呢？

帶著這樣的問題，《我們的巴黎協議》跟隨七名來自世界各地的草根運動者，前往巴黎參加第二十一次聯合國氣候大會。氣候變化對他們生活所造成的影響，使這些人深刻明白，國際間必須訂定出一個強而有力的碳排放限制協議，才可能阻止危機惡化至無可挽回的地步。

然而，由 192 個國家簽署的《巴黎協議》除了沒有強制約束力，更沒有提到全球氣候變遷的主要原因：化石燃料。這究竟是怎麼一回事？

本片試圖將連結起各個環節：聯合國無力處理氣候變化的過程、石油產業對各國政府的控制、人類歷史上最巨大的經濟不平等、即將到來的氣候災難、由化石燃料主導的經濟體與控制著它的那 1% 極少數人。

《我們的巴黎協議》透過氣候協議本身的限制與場外行動者的呼聲，試圖強調，人們真正需要的系統性改變，需要由草根組織培力、串聯、鼓動群眾的參與，因為真正的改變不會是由上而下，而是由下而上的。

If National Governments can't solve the climate crisis, then who will?

Not Without Us follows seven grassroots activists from around the world to the 21st U.N. Climate Talks in Paris. The effects of climate change on their lives reveal what's at stake if a strong agreement to limit carbon emissions is not reached.

Yet, the landmark Paris Accords, signed by 192 nations, is non-binding and fails to mention the main cause of global climate change : fossil fuels. How could this be?

Not Without Us connects the dots. Between the inability of the U.N. process to address climate change and Big Oil\'s control over governments. Between the greatest economic inequality in the history of mankind and the oncoming climate disaster. Between a fossil fuel driven economy and the 1% who control it.

Not Without Us demonstrates the importance of grassroots groups to empower mass movements to create the systemic change we need. Real change that comes not from top down, but the bottom up, organized by social movements to harness the greatest force we have: humanity.
