Watch Jon Bowermaster’s powerful trilogy of short documentaries on these time-sensitive issues affecting the Hudson, collectively known as “The Hudson: A River at Risk” at the Ossining Library on October 22. After the films, join our panelists — Riverkeeper President Paul Gallay; NY State Senator David Carlucci (D-Rockland, Ossining); Manna Jo Greene, Director of Environmental Action, Sloop Clearwater; and Dr. Sacha Spector, Director of Conservation Science, Scenic Hudson — as they discuss these and other threats to the health of the Hudson.
The event is free to the public.
Bowermaster, a National Geographic explorer and filmmaker whose series of sea kayaking documentaries have won numerous accolades and awards, provides a view of our Hudson that exposes both the river’s fragility and three alarming threats it faces.
After the film, Bowermaster will lead the panel and the audience in a discussion of these threats, and others, to the river.
