Free and Open to the Public!
Join us on the eve of Earth Day, Tuesday April 21st for a free showing of three powerful films: Kilowatt Ours, Burning the Future, and Grizzly. The three films will run in succession in the University Theater from 3:00 - 6:00 pm and then again from 7:00 - 10:00 pm.
Kilowatt Ours is a documentary by Jeff Barrie that has become a national movement to promote energy conservation, efficiency and renewable energy.
Grizzly, narrated by Oscar Award-winning actress, Susan Sarandon, tells the story of two individual grizzly bears living in Yellowstone National Park and documents the lives of ranchers, politicians, researchers and homeowners living in areas surrounding the park.
Burning the Future challenges the notion of "clean coal," documenting the devastating ecological, social, and health impacts of coal mining and mountaintop removal. The film follows the explosive forces that have created conflict between the coal industry and residents of West Virginia, where over 1.4 million acres of mountains have been destroyed and over 1.200 miles of streams obliterated.
