SUMMARY:“The White House Effect” Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Join Climate Action NC on April 4th\, at 5:30 p.m.\, for a documentary screening of “The White House Effect.” The film courageously revisits how a crucial opportunity for meaningful action against global warming was missed and intentionally undermined\, reminding us of the importance of seizing our chances to create change. \nSynopsis: “Three decades ago\, the world was poised to stop global warming. Using exclusively archival material\, THE WHITE HOUSE EFFECT tells the dramatic origin story of the climate crisis and how a political battle in the George H.W. Bush administration changed the course of history.” \n(Parking is available along Selwyn Avenue\, Roswell Avenue\, and Queens Road East. Look for the Education building and head to the front entrance)
