SUMMARY:March for Science
DESCRIPTION:SCIENCE\, NOT SILENCE\nThe March for Science demonstrates our passion for science and sounds a call to support and safeguard the scientific community. Recent policy changes have caused heightened worry among scientists. The incredible and immediate outpouring of support has made clear that these concerns are also shared by the support of hundreds of thousands of people around the world. \nThe mischaracterization of science as a partisan issue\, which has given policymakers permission to reject overwhelming evidence\, is a critical and urgent matter. It is time for people who support scientific research and evidence-based policies to take a public stand and be counted. \nON APRIL 22\, 2017\, WE WALK OUT OF THE LAB AND INTO THE STREETS.\nwww.marchforscience.com

SUMMARY:EJM Movie: Death by Design
DESCRIPTION:“What happens to your electronics when you upgrade?”\nFriday\, April 21\, 2017 \n6:30 PM Light Supper\, 7:00 Movie & Discussion \nCedar Lane UU Church\, the Chalice House \n9601 Cedar Lane\, Bethesda\, MD 20814 \nText Chris Graham at 301-717-4204 or chraham73@verizon.net for more information! \nPlease bring a dish to share or make a small donation! \nConsumers love – and live on – their smartphones\, tablets and laptops. A cascade of new devices pours endlessly into the market\, promising even better communication\, non-stop entertainment and instant information. The numbers are staggering. By 2020\, four billion people will have a personal computer. Five billion will own a mobile phone. But this revolution has a dark side\, hidden from most consumers. In an investigation that spans the globe\, filmmaker Sue Williams investigates the underbelly of the electronics industry and reveals how even the smallest devices have deadly environmental and health costs. From the intensely secretive factories in China\, to a ravaged New York community and the high tech corridors of Silicon Valley. This is a story of environmental degradation\, of health tragedies and the tipping point between consumerism and sustainability. \nDirected by Sue Williams. Produced by Sue Williams and Hilary Klotz Steinman. 74 min
