Boise Premiere of Disruption

Join 350 Idaho for the Boise premiere of Disruption, a new climate documentary with Van Jones, Chris Hayes, Naomi Klein, and more. Disruption spotlights the growing costs of inaction, spurring people to the streets and raising stakes for UN Climate Summit. When: Monday, October 20, Film Starts at 6:00pm. Discussion starts at 7:00ish Where: MK Nature Center (600 S. Walnut Street, Boise) RSVP: http://act.350.org/event/disruption_attend/9836 After the film there will be a discussion on how you can get involved with 350 Idaho and our new Fossil Free Boise campaign. The discussion should start around 7pm if you are unable to make it to the film showing. The film is pretty amazing, and it's a great chance to connect with other local climate activists and concerned citizens. The Boise showing of the film is fresh off the heals of the historic People’sClimate March that took place on September 21 and drew over 400,000 people including 350 Idaho organizer, James Blakely. The showing of the film sets the stage for the start of the Fossil Free Boise campaign. Disruption seeks to answer a fundamental question: When it comes to climate change, why do we do so little when we know so much? The movie lays bare the science, the broken political process, the industry special interests and the civic disengagement that have brought us to this crossroad. The title of the film, “Disruption,” refers to both the dangerous environmental tipping points after which the entire climate system could spiral out of control, as well as the need for a mass social movement to disrupt the status quo and business-as-usual approach which is inhibiting the bold actions necessary to protect the planet’s future. “In the past, masses of people have taken the wheel of history and turned it,” says author Naomi Klein in the film. “We have a responsibility to rise to our historic moment.”
