2020-03-18 | Deschutes Brewery Public House, 1044 NW Bond St, Bend, OR, 97701, United States
Many cities and states link population growth with economic growth, but perpetual economic growth/population growth aren’t sustainable—we’re exhausting Earth’s resources and ecosystems. This documentary about overpopulation and growth challenges the beliefs that drive attitudes and policies. The Climate Peril requires us to reduce consumption and reach a steady state economy.
Free and open to the public.

Postponed: Happening: A Clean Energy Revolution
2020-03-24
As part of Unity Community of Central Oregon’s Earth Day events the Unity EarthCare team is sponsoring the showing of the movie Happening: A Clean Energy Revolution.
Filmmaker James Redford embarks on a colorful personal journey into the dawn of the clean energy era as it creates jobs, turns profits, and makes communities stronger and healthier across the US. Unlikely entrepreneurs in communities from Georgetown, TX to Buffalo, NY reveal pioneering clean energy solutions while James’ discovery of how clean energy works, and what it means at a personal level, becomes the audiences’ discovery too. Reaching well beyond a great story of technology and innovation, Happening explores issues of human resilience, social justice, embracing the future, and finding hope for our survival.
The short trailer here will give you a good feel for the show.
This event is part of Faith Climate Action Week.
