Will Our Planet Survive?
The Elizabethtown College “Sustainability and Hope Series” features films and panel discussions addressing global warming and other potential environmental catastrophes. The films raise critical questions, “What led to our environmental crisis?” “How will it affect me?” and “What can I do to reverse these seemingly inevitable outcomes?” The series of events will be held in the Steinman Center, Brinser Lecture Room. Sponsored by the Office of the Dean of Faculty, all events are free and open to the public.The final film of the Sustainability and Hope Film Series, “China – From Red to Green,” will be shown at 7:00 p.m. on November 10th. Can China handle its own enormous environmental challenges? The film charts China’s rise as the future world leader in sustainable technology and design and explores design solutions, theoretical and practical, including Steven Holl’s Linked Hybrid Project. Also featured is William McDonough, Time magazine’s “Hero of the Planet,” McDonough elaborates on his innovative plans to make China an entirely sustainable country and how architecture can be both profitable and environmentally intelligent. The film will be introduced by David Ferruzza, associate professor of engineering emeritus.
