With our friends The MinusCar Project, we co-hosted a special community screening of the No Impact Man movie last night at Augustana College (see our big announcement here). Due to the season’s first blizzard hitting in the afternoon, we figured turn out would be pretty low. That was crazy…
Fifty-three green-minded souls braved the cold, wind and snow to share in the movie experience. So, the reviews? Really good show, and an engaging message. So engaging, many movie-goers stuck around for an hour after the show ended to discuss it. We talked about what we learned, what surprised us, and what inspired us. We also talked about what we’ll do about it as individuals. Really good stuff.
Before the movie started, we connected with Green Project intern Jamie Horter, live via Skype video from the Copenhagen Climate Conference. It was our first update on her experience, and the movie crowd asked some great questions. Jamie also made a short video for us (see it below).
Big thanks to Michael Christensen, Karin Costin and Brian Rieger for making this whole thing work. If you’d like to see the No Impact Man movie, it’s available at Siouxland Public Libraries, thanks to a grant by The MinusCar Project. We also have a copy in the Green Project library you can borrow.
