Sustainability Movie Series: We're All Plastic People Now

Grab a snack as you learn about climate change, sustainability, and everything in between through the Sustainability Movie Series here on campus held by the Office of Campus Sustainability. We will be joined by a representative of Oceana, an international organization that works to protect and restore the world's oceans. Movie Synopsis: Introduced by actor and environmentalist Ted Danson, the documentary film Were All Plastic People Now investigates the hidden story of plastic and its effects on human health. In an era of throw-away ease, convenience has cost us our well-being. Were All Plastic People Now asks the question, how much evidence do we need before we decide to take action?
