Film Screening: "An Inconvenient Truth" 20th Anniversary

Film: An Inconvenient Truth (2006)

Directors: Davis Guggenheim, Al Gore

About the Film

An audience and critical favorite, An Inconvenient Truth makes the compelling case that global warming is real, man-made, and its effects will be cataclysmic if we don’t act now. Gore presents a wide array of facts and information in a thoughtful and compelling way: often humorous, frequently emotional, and always fascinating. In the end, An Inconvenient Truth accomplishes what all great films should: it leaves the viewer shaken, involved and inspired.

Speakers

The screening will be followed by a panel discussion. Speakers to be announced.
