The Sustainability Film Series brings a full house from
campus and the local community.
The Sustainability Film Series:
Issues & Dialogue (formerly Green Film Series) has offered
free monthly film screenings at Michigan Tech from January
through May, each year since 2011. Films are selected with
the goal of sharing relevant information, facilitating
discussion, and enhancing the capability of campus and
community members to make informed sustainable decisions.
The Film Series not only provides a platform for promoting
greater community awareness, understanding, and activism,
but it also connects our local community to the momentum and
efforts of the larger global community.
The Film
Series focuses on a range of topics related to social,
economic, and environmental sustainability--water, energy,
climate change, agriculture, food, waste, economics,
transportation, indigenous peoples, and more. A facilitator
knowledgeable on the topic, leads an informal discussion
with participants.
Community members enjoy refreshments and engaging
discussion.
The films were purchased by the Lake
Superior Stewardship Initiative with grant funding from
several sources, and may be used for educational purposes at
no charge. Films are available for a 2-week checkout for
classroom, meetings, or home viewings. To borrow films visit
the Western
U.P. STEM Resource Clearinghouse Webpage.
Cosponsors
The film series is coordinated by the
Michigan Tech Center for Science & Environmental Outreach.
Films are selected by our cosponsors.
