SUMMARY:Plastic Free EcoChallenge
DESCRIPTION:Plastic pollution now contaminates the deepest trenches in the ocean\, the highest mountain peaks\, and even the air we breathe. Microplastics have been found in human blood\, lungs\, breast milk and placentas.  Plastic has entered the food chain\, killing wildlife\, and causing the average person to eat tens of thousands of microplastic particles every year. To learn more about this issue & take action to affect change\, join one of the two teams listed below for the Plastic Free EcoChallenge (or create your own team\, or join as an individual)!  You select the challenges you’d like to accomplish during the month and when/how you do them.  For more information\, see this link: https://plasticfree.ecochallenge.org/.

SUMMARY:The Letter: Screening & Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening and discussion of The Letter\, a gorgeously filmed story featuring scenes from around the world that puts a human face on climate change. The Letter tells the story of the Laudato Si’ encyclical letter by Pope Francis through the eyes of frontline leaders battling the ecological crisis across continents. A powerful – and surprising – dialogue with the Pope in the Vatican brings new hope for our common home. Featured in the film are Arouna Kandé\, a climate refugee in Senegal; Cacique Dadá\, an environmental defender and leader of the Maró Indigenous territory in the Brazilian Amazon; Ridhima Pandey\, a youth climate activist from India; and Greg Asner and Robin Martin\, biologists studying coral reefs in Hawaii. The film features exclusive footage from their encounter with Francis\, alongside the personal stories and scientific findings throughout the documentary. Join us for the film and discussion.  Register on www.eventbrite.com at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-letter-screening-discussion-tickets-648461334307.
