Friends,
The Sierra Club would like to invite some of you to attend an important community wide event on sustainability as our guest. The first 15 people to join or renew (http://action.sierraclub.org/site/PageServer?pagename=Main_Join_or_Give) will get a free ticket to a great event! The Sierra Club, Sustain Charlotte, and PiES will be hosting an exclusive Charlotte showing of Fixing the Futureon July 18th at the Epicenter Theater. Starting at 6:00 pm will have a pre-viewing networking social get together in the theater lounge and the film starts at 7:30 (tickets required).
It’s going to be an enlightening and thought provoking film. By featuring communities using sustainable and innovative approaches to create jobs and build prosperity, Fixing the Future inspires hope and renewal in a people overwhelmed by economic collapse. The film highlights effective, local practices such as: local business alliances, community banking, time banking/hour exchange, worker cooperatives and local currencies.
Following the film (show starts at 7:30) there will be an onscreen panel discussion from a great cast and then we’ll have a community discussion, film reaction, and sharing of ideas and solutions to make Charlotte Mecklenburg more sustainable.
