Ocean Film Screening
Coos County's Shoreline Education for Awareness (SEA) is presenting a film about environmental impacts on our ocean environment with a screening of Ocean Frontiers: The Dawn of a New Era in Ocean Stewardship on Friday, April 13, 6 p.m. in the Bandon Library's Sprague Room (1204 11th St., S.W.). The showing is free and open to all.
This 60-minute film, produced by Green Fire Productions as part of its "Ocean Frontiers" video series, focuses on the ocean environment, human-caused environmental impacts (including climate change), and solutions. The film conveys hope for the future of our oceans if humankind can achieve symbiotic relationships with our oceans.
From Green Fire Production's description of the film: "(It) takes us on an inspiring voyage to seaports and watersheds across the country—from the busy shipping lanes of Boston Harbor to a small fishing community in the Pacific Northwest; from America’s coral reefs in the Florida Keys to the nation’s premier seafood nursery in the Mississippi Delta. Here we meet an intermingling of unlikely allies, of industrial shippers and whale biologists, pig farmers and wetland ecologists, sport fishers and reef snorkelers and many more, all of them embarking on a new course of cooperation, to sustain the sea and our ocean economies."
The event is part of SEA's 2018 Coastal Education Series.
