| Arusha Action Film Series #5 - The Great Warming\n \nPremiering the feature film The Great Warming on Wednesday, March 15 at 7PM \nat the Uptown Theatre (612 8 Ave SW). $10, 100% Calgary Dollars accepted.\nTickets available at the Arusha Centre, Sunnyside Market and at the door.\nAction Films screenings are the third Wednesday of every month. \n \nWe are living at the dawn of a new epoch. Year by year, degree by degree,\nEarth is growing warmer... a legacy of the Industrial Revolution, population\ngrowth, and our addiction to technology, speed and power. Just as other \ngenerations spoke of a Great Plague and a Great Depression, our children\nwill be compelled to endure The Great Warming - and find a way to conquer\nits consequences.\n \nFilmed in eight countries on four continents, endorsed by dozens of the \nworld's leading scientists, this 90 minute film is the most factually\naccurate, visually stunning and wide-ranging production ever mounted about\nthis complex, fascinating subject. Acknowledged as \"the best film about \nglobal warming ever shot\", the film taps into a growing groundswell of\npublic interest to present an emotional, accurate picture of our children's\nplanet. Narrated by Alanis Morissette & Keanu Reeves.\n \nThis event will also screen locally produced movie Big Bow Float that looks\nat the local community group Bow Riverkeeper and their mission to protect,\nconserve, and improve the health of the Bow River watershed and all the \ncommunities that depend on it.\n\n\n
