Climate Films: The Ants and the Grasshopper

Join us for our new Climate Films Series! On the second Wednesday of each month we will screen a film about the climate crisis, focusing especially on existing, difference-making solutions. We will have a brief discussion after the film led by members of Regenerate BC and the New Westminster Climate Action Hub.

 

For our third screening we will watch The Ants and the Grasshopper (2021). Anita Chitaya is a farmer in Malawi who has brought progress to her village by transforming the way they think and work together. But when the effects of climate change show indisputable signs of irreversible damage to her land and community, Anita travels to America to meet with farmers, activists, climate skeptics, and legislators to persuade them to save her home by first saving the planet.

Popcorn will be provided! Bring your own bowl!
