Science: Across the disciplines The 11th Hour

Join us at Parkway Central Library, First Floor, Room 108 for a science film series!

This series will feature screenings and discussions of movies that explore how science is practiced across various disciplines and careers: whether it is through astronomy, investigative journalism, or botany and so forth. Film screenings will take place monthly from August 2026 - June 2027 and will be followed by a brief community discussion of film and science careers.

The film for January will be The 11th Hour (2007) narrated and produced by Leonardo DiCaprio. This film centers on what investigative journalism, science, and cinematography can tell us about global warming and deforestation. We will discuss what conservation actions governments have taken to mitigate CO2 emmisions, and what we can do as individuals.
