CAPE SPIN!: AN AMERICAN POWER STRUGGLE is the Friends of Peace/Climate film for the month, something positive for the season and for these dark times. The documentary tells the surreal, fascinating, tragicomic story of the battle over America's first offshore wind farm. The film is the recipient of multiple film festival awards and the reviews have been superlative:
"Sober, lighthearted and even wacky."--The AP
"Rollicking"--The Boston Phoenix
"Exasperatingly funny...Spin is a good yarn."--The Boston Globe
EDIBLE INSECTS
Friends of Peace/Climate members
will recall the lecture and demonstration of this sustainable protein source
presented by Nathan Allen to our meeting a couple of years ago.
Nathan's work is climate-related because of the difficulty of providing
adequate protein to our warming world. In fact, Nathan has agreed to
provide us an update sometime in the future. And to
help advance his educational non-profit, he has recently conducted a
fund drive. If any of our members would like to help out, please go to www.littleherds.org.
