The Green Screen is back with 4 film screenings in Cleere’s theatre over the next 3 months examining the global issues of energy, sustainability, equality and the environment .
First up is “The real dirt on farmer john”, an inspiring tale of a maverick farmer who sets up a community supported farm in America.
Second is “Crude Impact” – another look at peak oil and its implications for our society.
Third is “Money as Debt” – a somewhat controversial but timely look at the inherent unsustainability of our debt based “growth at all costs” money system.
Finally Leonardo DiCaprio’s “11th Hour” – a broad sweep of the converging crises in the 21st century.
Before each film there will be a short informal meeting in Chez Pierre. These meetings will be a regular event before our films where we hope to sow the seeds and spark off “Transition subgroups”. The first meeting, this Thursday at 7pm, will focus on establishing a “Transition Food” group. If you are interested in setting up projects such as allotments, community gardens, community supported agriculture or whatever you feel passionate about then please do attend – but don’t be late for the film!
