Please join Transition Sebastopol for the screening of Renewal hosted by Heart and Soul at the French Garden Restaurant, March 28th at 7 pm.
"RENEWAL is the first feature-length documentary film to capture the vitality and diversity of today's religious-environmental activists. From within their Christian, Jewish, Buddhist and Muslim traditions, Americans are becoming caretakers of the Earth. With great courage, these women, men and children are re-examining what it means to be human and how we live on this planet. Their stories of combating global warming and the devastation of mountaintop removal, of promoting food security, environmental justice, recycling, land preservation, and of teaching love and respect for life on Earth are the heart of RENEWAL."
"The religious environmental movement is potentially key to dealing with the greatest problem humans have ever faced, and it has never been captured with more breadth and force than in RENEWAL. I hope this movie is screened in church basements and synagogue social halls across the country, and that it moves many more people of faith off the fence and into action".—Bill McKibben
Please stay with us for the conversation following the film. We will have representatives from different local faith-based communities telling us about the good work they are doing for our planet. Our conversations are fun and lively, and this one should should be great!
