Sustainability Film and Discussion Series

Going Circular (2021, 86 min.)

Description

Imagine a future where we mimic the genius of nature — to re-calibrate the way humankind lives, breathes, builds — respecting the limits of our resources and transforming the modern world. The film investigates the concept of circularity, an economic system that eliminates waste and saves the planet’s resources, and offers concrete solutions to move toward a more circular economy.

About the Discussion Facilitators

The film will be followed by discussion facilitated by Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering candidate Utkarsh Chaudhari and members of the Hotforest Enterprise.

The film and free refreshments in lobby are provided by the Great Lakes Research Center in recognition of 2024 World Water Day.

Cost

FREE. $5 suggested donation per film to support the Sustainability Film Series is appreciated. Make a donation online or in-person at the film showing.
