Science on Screen at the Loft Cinema: This Changes Everything

What if confronting the climate change crisis is the best chance we'll ever get to build a better world? Filmed in nine countries and five continents over four years, This Changes Everything is an epic attempt to re-imagine the vast challenge of climate change.

"Genuinely stirring ... an unsettling but ultimately encouraging documentary about global warming and grassroots activism." - Joe Leydon, Variety

Directed by journalist/filmmaker Avi Lewis (The Take), and inspired by Naomi Klein's international non-fiction bestseller of the same name, the film presents seven portraits of communities on the front lines, from Montana's Powder River Basin to the Alberta Tar Sands, from the coast of South India to Beijing and beyond. Interwoven with these stories of struggles is Naomi Klein's narration, connecting the carbon in the air with the economic system that put it there. Throughout the film, Klein builds to her most controversial and exciting idea: that we can seize the existential crisis of climate change to transform our failed economic system into something radically better. (Dir. by Avi Lewis, 2015, USA, 89 mins., Not Rated)

A post-film panel discussion will include Diana Liverman of the UA's Institute of the Environment, Luis Alberto Perales of Tieraa y Libertad, and Bob Cook of Sustainable Tucson.
