On June 22, The Institute for Sustainable Communities, working with Bloomberg Philanthropies, is bringing a free one-day advanced screening of the film From the Ashes to Burlington!

From The Ashes takes a compelling look at the lives and issues behind the “war on coal” to show what’s at stake for our economy, health and climate. The film presents the stories and real facts behind the coal industry’s legacy, while offering solutions that can help revive struggling rural economies and safeguard the environment. The film will air globally on National Geographic on Sunday June 25.

After the screening, film producer Sidney Beaumont, national Sierra Club President Loren Blackford, and ISC's VP of U.S. Programs Steve Nicholas will engage in a discussion that not only delves into the issues surrounding coal, but solutions that are happening across the country to make the transition to renewables.
