Subject: Fw: Ohio University Sustainability Film series, Athena Cinema, Fall Semester 2021

Hello Biological Sciences Faculty and Instructors,

This email is from Loraine McCosker, co-coordinator of the Sustainability film series at Ohio University. I am providing information regarding our fall film series currently scheduled for in person screening at the Athena Cinema uptown. Masks are required and seating will be reduced. We hope that you will share this information with your students and classes.


Environmental Studies, the Athena Cinema and University Libraries present the ninth year of the Sustainability Film Series, working in partnership with our sponsors.  Here is a link to the film series. http://athenacinema.com/sustainabilityseries/<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fathenacinema.com%2Fsustainabilityseries%2F&data=04%7C01%7Cpopescu%40ohio.edu%7C9c3f444093fb4d5d126f08d96336306e%7Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a%7C0%7C0%7C637649906741077249%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=kQe1oPO6%2FkC2EbL7CwRfGo2JYq2qp0BMVvfF6ILY5Dg%3D&reserved=0

The series highlights new release films that explore diverse topics, this year focusing on global climate action, conservation protections, sustainable farming and the resilience of the planet through forest fungi systems. The political systems that continue to regulate and create our environmental and climate reality are a part of most of the film offerings. This semester we will collaborate with the Athens International Film and Video Festival during their October festival which screens October 15-24. http://athensfilmfest.org/<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fathensfilmfest.org%2F&data=04%7C01%7Cpopescu%40ohio.edu%7C9c3f444093fb4d5d126f08d96336306e%7Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a%7C0%7C0%7C637649906741077249%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=jw2viZkyPBg6Y0f6%2F5Cw6DR6U7xU1tYCNxS78yCKux8%3D&reserved=0

Our vision and goal are those of years past: to offer attendees the opportunity to acquire a deeper understanding of the current issues related to global environmental and sustainable challenges and solutions.  We choose films that engage and challenge the audience to integrate the information from these stories into their everyday life as well as delve into solutions. We also search for films that are visually stunning, engaging and a pleasure to screen.

We work to bring together students, faculty and regional community members. Following each screening we invite audience members to join us for a panel discussion hosted by faculty members, students and community members. Please join us for a conversation following these beautiful, thought-provoking and timely films. All admissions free.

Sponsors:

Free admission for series is possible thanks to the support of: Voinovich School of Leadership and Public Affairs, OHIO Honors Program, Honors Tutorial College, Cutler Scholars, Office of Sustainability, Center for Campus & Community Engagement, University College, Athens International Film and Video Festival, and beloved nonprofits and businesses.

Please email with questions.

Best regards,



Loraine McCosker and the Sustainability Film team
