Film: The Story of Plastic – August 13, 2021

REACH Museum, 1943 Columbia Park Trail in Richland
From 6:30 p.m. – 9 p.m. (doors open at 6 p.m.)
Free to attend

Reach Museum, Citizens’ Climate Lobby Tri-Cities Chapter, and Sustainable Tri-cities are partnering to offer a free screening of The Story of Plastic, a 90 minute documentary that uncovers the ugly truth behind the current global plastic pollution crisis.

Striking footage shot over three continents illustrates the ongoing catastrophe: fields full of garbage, veritable mountains of trash; rivers and seas clogged with waste; and skies choked with the poisonous runoff from plastic production and recycling processes with no end in sight. Original animations, interviews with experts and activists, and never-before-filmed scenes reveal the disastrous consequences of the flood of plastic smothering ecosystems and poisoning communities around the world – and the global movement rising up in response.

A discussion will follow the film.
