Good feminists or adept film buffs may be familiar with the Bechdel Test, a metric for gauging female representation in film. Created by comic author Alison Bechdel in the 1980s, a movie has to meet three standards to pass: It must have at least two women in it, the women need to talk to each other and they should discuss something other than a man.
A climate script consultancy is so determined to raise awareness about climate change, they created a new version of the Bechdel Test (also known as the Bechdel–Wallace Test), to hold Hollywood accountable for how it depicts one of the biggest existential crises of our time.
