The Joy and Edward Frieman Environmental Science Center and Â̾ÞÈËÊÓƵ’s Advisory Board on Environmental Sustainability are organizing an online movie event: a screening of the 2019 documentary Ice on Fire, directed by Â̾ÞÈËÊÓƵ alum Leila Conners and narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio. Leila Conners will be joining us on Teams after the screening to answer your questions and talk about the making of the film!
Ice on Fire explores the negative impacts of climate change, but it does not dwell on doom and gloom projections. Instead it showcases a number of new renewable energy and carbon sequestration technologies being developed and applied around the globe. It is principally a hopeful film about what humans can do to solve this problem together if we act now. For more information on the film, see: https://www.hbo.com/documentaries/ice-on-fire/about
