Councilman Bullock hosts Earth Day film screening, "Chasing Ice" documentary
7:00 PM - 8:30 PM
Join Lakewood Councilman Tom Bullock for an Earth Day for a free film-screening. We'll watch "Chasing Ice," an Academy Award-Nominated documentary that captures visual evidence of climate change impacts on glaciers through the use of time-lapse photography. The film features the work of a National Geographic photographer and an Ohio State University polar science researcher.
SYNOPSIS: Acclaimed environmental photographer James Balog was once a skeptic about climate change. But through his Extreme Ice Survey, he discovers undeniable evidence of our changing planet. Chasing Ice reveals Balog's hauntingly beautiful, multi-year time-lapse videos of vanishing glaciers across the Arctic, all while delivering fragile hope to our carbon-powered planet. The film debuts the original song by J. Ralph, performed by Scarlett Johansson. chasingice.com
Brief discussion to follow the movie. (Note: Doors open at 6:30 p.m., film screening begins a 7:00 p.m. Film run-time: 75 min.)
Location:
Lakewood Public Library, Main Branch, basement auditorium, 15425 Detroit Avenue, Lakewood, OH 44107
