SHARE's Environmental Film Series
"Growthbusters - Hooked on Growth"
Individual and public policy decisions today are informed by a powerful, pro-cultural bias. We worship at the Church of Growth Everlasting. Undeterred by the facts, we're on a collision course powered by denial and the myth that growth brings prosperity. Before we can shift our civilization meaningfully, effectively, and substantially toward true sustainability, the world must be "prepped". We must become self-aware and recognize the programming that keeps us hooked. Growthbusters will do just that. We'll hear from leading thinkers of our time - scientists, sociologists, economists - to help us separate fact from superstition.
We're approaching the end of growth. Will we embrace it? Or go down fighting?
Films are shown at the Midland Public Library, Assembly Room. Room opens at 6:30pm, and we must be out by 8:45pm. There will be discussion, after the film, which will continue at Explorer's Cafe after 8:45pm for those who would like to keep talking!
Admission is by donation. Coffee, tea, and desserts will be provided. Please bring your own mug.
