Description of Pictures: The Human Element
Presented by the Hollomon Price Foundation
Renowned photographer James Balog (Chasing Ice) uses his camera to reveal how environmental change is affecting the lives of everyday Americans. Following the four classical elements — air, earth, fire, and water — to frame his journey, Balog explores wildfires, hurricanes, sea level rise, coal mining, and the changes in the air we breathe. With compassion and heart, this film tells an urgent story while giving inspiration for a more balanced relationship between humanity and nature.
Post-screening discussion feat. Matthew Testa (Director), Jesse Meisenhelter(Green New Deal Campaign Manager, Sunrise Movement), & Rafe Pomerance (Chairman, Arctic 21). Moderated by Heidi Nel (Principal, The Raben Group).
A reception will follow the screening and discussion.
