The next film in the Sarnia Justice Film Festival is The Clean Bin Project: Trying to Live a Waste-Free Life. It plays on Saturday, February 20 at 7pm.
This series runs at the Sarnia Library, and it's free of charge.
Here's a brief description of the film:
"Is it
possible to live completely waste free? In this multi-award winning film partners
Jen and Grant go head to head in a competition to see who can swear off
consumerism and produce the least garbage. Their light-hearted
competition is set against a darker examination of the problem waste.
Even as Grant and Jen start to garner interest in their project, they struggle
to find meaning in their minuscule influence on the large-scale environmental
impacts of our “throw-away society”. This film will prove to be a fun and
inspiring call to individual action to deal with the waste we produce."
Dr. Kate Parizeau (Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography at the University of Guelph) and Mary Jean O’Donnell (President of MJ Waste Solutions) will lead a conversation afterwards about waste in our everyday lives.
