Earth Day is a day to celebrate what our planet gives us and to learn more about how to preserve its natural beauty. This month, The Wayne State Environmental Science Program will be hosting a series of events that showcase our campus's beautiful environment, including a film festival on April 22 in the DeRoy auditorium from 5-8 PM.
At the film festival, participants will have the opportunity to view inspiring and thought-provoking films about various environmental issues and discoveries. These films are meant to get you thinking about the world we live in and what we decide to do as a society to protect the earth that gives us life.
Films such as Detroit Hives about converting vacant houses into urban bee farms, and A Plastic Ocean about how plastics in the oceans break up into small particulates that enter the food chain where they attract toxins, among other videos, will be featured at the film festival.
This event is co-sponsored by T-RUST (Transformative Research in Urban Sustainability Training), The office of campus sustainability, and Plastic Oceans.
