On Thursday, September 15 at 7:00p.m. Warren Library will be presenting the Part Six of The Vermont Movie followed by a Q&A session with Dorothy Tod, one of the filmmakers involved with this project.
Part Six tackles contemporary tensions over energy, independence, the environment and the state’s future. Chronicling the struggle to close the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant, it reveals the power of protest, the influence of lobbyists and the importance of town meeting debate and a citizen legislature. It follows the battle over windmills in Lowell—a struggle over scale, aesthetics and environmental impacts—and explores thorny questions about economics, sovereignty and climate change. Finally, the devastating impacts of Hurricane Irene reveal the power not only of nature, but of people and community.
The event is free and open to public.
