Grassroots Environmental Education & Wainwright House are pleased to present this film screening and discussion on Thursday, September 18 at 7 pm as part of a series of programs leading into the People’s Climate March on Sunday, September 21st in New York City
GROUNDSWELL RISING:
PROTECTING OUR CHILDREN’S AIR AND
WATER
How many children need to get sick? How long do we threaten our air, water and sanctity of life before the alarms are heeded?
Groundswell Rising, Protecting Our Children’s Air And Water, the new documentary from Emmy Award-winning Resolution Pictures, captures the passion of people engaged in a David and Goliath confrontation. They stand together, challenging a system that promotes profit over health. We meet mothers, fathers, scientists, doctors, farmers and people from all sides of the political spectrum taking a hard look at energy extraction techniques not proven to be safe. With the Oil and Gas industry’s expansion of fracking seen as a moral issue, this provocative documentary tracks a people’s movement, a groundswell rising towards reason and sensitivity, to protect life, today and tomorrow.
Thursday, September 18th, 7 pm.
