Screening: The PipeDreams Project & Someday All of This Will Be Yours at The Rhizome Cafe

April 28, 2012 from 7pm to 10pm
How do we confront overwhelming social, political, and ecological issues with a sense of agency? Two pairs of young filmmakers explore this question on separate journeys: one kayaking the 900km between Kitimat and Vancouver BC in search of answers about Enbridge’s proposed Northern Gateway Pipeline; the other following the 3500km of the Kinder Morgan TransMountain Pipeline from Vancouver to Fort McMurray AB, the center of tar sands extraction.

Food

Local, organic, rural, and/or urban, food production is a mainstay of life, and doing it well leads to wellness. From farm to kitchen, discussions relating to food--and the community arising around it--belong here.

59 discussions

Transportation

If you have to leave your village, how will you get where you want to go? By car? Preferably not, both for your wallet and the earth’s sake. This category is for all discussions relating to how we all get around.

5 discussions

Housing

A human right? After food, most feel shelter is the most important necessity. A place of shelter is also the start of a community. This category is for all things relating to shelter, housing, affordable housing, homes, renewable heating systems, green buildings, heritage, and our built environment in general.
