Summer Film Series: Combating Climate Change

Want a way to stay involved with the Clean Air Coalition?

Want to learn more about Climate Change?

Do you just like Watching Movies?

If your answer to any of the questions is Yes,  
we have something for you!

This August, Clean Air Coalition is hosting a Combating Climate Change Film Series. We will be screening three films about climate change and its interactions with people that are fun, informative, and help explain why the work we all do for the environment is so important.

The series starts on August 5th with a screening of The 11th Hour, a film that examines the threat of climate change on human life and poses the question: Will the world's population employ break-through technologies and change our behavior to save our species?

Then join us on August 12th for The Island President to see how climate change is threatening the lives of people in the Maldives and how one man is working to stop it before it's too late.

Finally on August 19th, come watch a film that is less science and more politics. Everything's Cool is a documentary that studies the politics behind keeping climate change out of the mainstream and the struggle to make everyone recognize its urgency. By the end we should all be inspired to work towards marshaling the public and political will necessary to save our species and our planet.

These films are sure to inform and entertain and all are welcome. We hope to see you all there!
