A Fierce Green Fire: The Battle for a Living Planet
Tuesday, April 25, 7-9pm at the Drexel Theater, 2254 E. Main St.
Earth Day and People's Climate Mobilization Special Event - FREE!
This powerful film is the first big-picture exploration of the environmental movement - grassroots and global activism spanning fifty years from conservation to climate change. From halting dams in the Grand Canyon to battling 20,000 tons of toxic waste at Love Canal; from Greenpeace saving the whales to Chico Mendes and the rubbertappers saving the Amazon; from climate change to the promise of transforming our civilization... the film tells vivid stories about people fighting - and succeeding - against enormous odds. Donations support the nonprofit Drexel theatre. Reserve free tickets on Eventbrite.
