HOSTED BY OHIO RIVER GUARDIANS, GREEN UMBRELLA AND OHIO POOR PEOPLE’S CAMPAIGN |
This Pre-Release film was recently called “a tell-all on plastic pollution…one that is a must-see for people to understand where the problem of plastic really lies.” The New film that is currently touring the film festival circuit presents a cohesive timeline of how we got to our current global plastic pollution crisis and how the oil and gas industry has successfully manipulated the narrative around it. This film introduces audiences to the heroes and the villains behind one of the world’s most pressing environmental issues, from the extraction of fossil fuels to plastic disposal and the global resistance fighting back.
As cities like Cincinnati, numerous states, and entire countries act to reduce single-use plastic, global petrochemical companies are planning to build twenty-five petrochemical and plastic facilities in the Ohio River Valley.
