Film Screening This Friday: “Do The Math”

 

Join CUNY Divest this Friday, May 17th for a special screening of 350.Org’s powerful new documentary entitled “Do The Math.” The film outlines the disturbing new math that is informing the rapid heating of our planet, and follows the national movement to stop climate change at the root: the burning of fossil fuels.

After the film, we will have a teach-in with organizers from 350.Org and the Responsible Endowments Coalition (REC) to learn how students right here in NYC are activating their power to send a message to the oil, gas and coal companies whose business model threatens to alter the climate irreparably.

“If it’s wrong to wreck the planet, then it’s wrong to profit from that wreckage.” -Bill McKibben

Over 300 fossil fuel divestment campaigns have sprung up around the country in the past year. Divestment is spreading like wildfire. Come down Friday at 6 p.m. and help heat things up even more.
