Global warming documentary “An Inconvenient Truth” to be shown here
|
The USI student affiliate of the National American Chemical Society and Save our Land and Environment (SOLE), a Posey County-based environmental organization, are teaming up to bring the Oscar-winning global warming documentary “An Inconvenient Truth” to campus on Thursday, March 15. Dr. Jeff Seyler, professor of chemistry, said the presentation is meant “to promote awareness and get people to think about the ways they can help reduce carbon dioxide emissions and other greenhouse gases.” “An Inconvenient Truth” won Best Documentary Film at this year’s Academy Awards and is widely credited with bringing global warming to worldwide attention. “It’s something to which people need to give serious thought, and take action,” Seyler said. A question and answer period with a panel of experts will follow the film, which will be presented at 6 p.m. in Forum I in the Wright Administration Building. The event is free and open to the public. For more information, contact Seyler at 812/464-1923. |
