Filmmaker Jeff Barrie offers hope as he turns the camera on himself and asks, “How can I make a difference?” In his journey Barrie explores the source of our electricity and the problems caused by energy production including mountain top removal, childhood asthma and global warming. Along the way he encounters individuals, businesses, organizations, and communities who are leading the way, using energy conservation, efficiency and renewable, green power all while saving money and the environment.
This often amusing and always inspiring story shows, “You can easily make a difference and here’s how!”
Stay for the discussion afterwards, and learn not only what you can do to lower your carbon footpring, but also about clean power organizing efforts in the City of Chicago. Featuring: Board member, Little Village Environmental Justice Organization and Alderman Joe Moore.
