Free Screening of "Disruption" followed by Discussion: How We Can Address Climate Change

Everyone is invited to attend a free screening of “Disruption,” a new, fast-paced cinematic journey through the wild world of climate change: the science, the politics, the solutions, and the stories that define this crisis at this pivotal point in human history. The screening will be presented on Wednesday November 18 at 7:00 p.m.at the Emmanuel Episcopal Church of Wakefield, located at the intersection of Byrant and Main Streets. Light refreshments will be served.

‘When it comes to climate change, why do we do so little when we know so much?’

Through a relentless investigation to find the answer, Disruption takes an unflinching look at the devastating consequences of our inaction.

The exploration lays bare the terrifying science, the shattered political process, the unrelenting industry special interests and the civic stasis that have brought us to this social, moral and ecological crossroads. The film also takes us behind-the-scenes of the efforts to organize the largest climate rally in the history of the planet during the UN world climate summit.

This is the story of our unique moment in history. We are living through an age of tipping points and rapid social and planetary change. We’re the first generation to feel the impacts of climate disruption, and the last generation that can do something about it. The film enlarges the issue beyond climate impacts and makes a compelling call for bold action that is strong enough to tip the balance to build a clean energy future.

The movie is about an hour long, and will be followed by a discussion geared to helping us all determine what WE can do to address the serious issue of climate change. Information about 350.org, the Creation Care Season of Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts, and Wakefield Climate Action Project will available. To RSVP, see wakefieldcap.org or call 617-794-7223.
