Description
AN INCONVENIENT SEQUEL – SCREENING AND ROUNDTABLE
A decade after AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH brought the climate crisis into the heart of popular culture, comes the riveting and rousing follow-up that shows just how close we are to a real energy revolution. Former Vice President Al Gore continues his tireless fight, traveling around the world training an army of climate champions and influencing international climate policy. Cameras follow him behind the scenes – in moments both private and public, funny and poignant -- as he pursues the inspirational idea that while the stakes have never been higher, the perils of climate change can be overcome with human ingenuity and passion.
Join us on Earth Day for a small group screening of this powerful film, followed by a roundtable discussion about the film and local environmental priorities.
This event is a part of the 2018 GreenTalks series.
