These screenings will be followed by discussion about the content of the documentaries, specifically when possible with professionals in the fields discussed. The idea being to educate viewers about these topics and effect change in their own lives, as stewards of the earth.

Snacks are encouraged, preferably homemade, little or no packaging.

Also, should these screenings be well received, we will consider doing further screenings in the vein of ecological awareness and social justice.
