DESCRIPTION:NO IMPACT MAN Screening Spreads the No Impact Holiday Message\n\n\nOn 
 Wednesday, December 9th, the Santa Cruz green community will come together 
 to spread the No Impact message with an exclusive pre-screening of the 
 film, NO IMPACT MAN, at the historic Del Mar Theatre in downtown Santa 
 Cruz. The pre-screening is one of many national screenings happening this 
 week in honor of the UN Climate Change Conference taking place in 
 Copenhagen.\n\nHosted by Monterey Bay Green Business member Nubius 
 Organics, and joined by local environmental non-profits Save Our Shores, 
 People Power, Ecology Action and Transition Santa Cruz, the event will 
 bring the No Impact topic home to Santa Cruz by offering community members 
 tips on how to lower your environmental impact during the holidays, as well 
 as ways to get involved at a local level. \n\nAttendees arriving at the NO 
 IMPACT MAN movie on their low impact bicycles will receive complimentary 
 Valet Bike Service provided by Santa Cruz's own People Power! \n\nDr. 
 Wallace J. Nichols, local eco-celebrity and founder of Ocean Revolution, 
 will lead a community discussion about how to lessen our impact and help 
 curb the devastation happening due to global warming. "The Santa Cruz 
 community works hard to keep our land and waterways healthy. Through 
 efforts such as volunteering for  river and coastal clean-ups and voting 
 for local initiatives that reduce or remove impacts before they happen, 
 like the ban on styrofoam containers and the current petition to ban single 
 use bags, stamps Santa Cruz as a leader in the environmental movement," 
 says Wallace J. Nichols. \n\nTickets to the event are $5 in advance and $7 
 at the door. The No Impact reception begins at 6:40pm, with the film at 
 7:15pm, and community discussion at 8:45pm. \n\nPurchase advance tickets 
 at: www.nubiusorganics.com/NoImpactManScreeningSantaCruz.html. \n\nNo 
 Impact Man is the story of a guilty, New York liberal who decides to 
 practice what he preaches for ONE YEAR (turns off the electricity, stops 
 making garbage, gives up TV, taxis and take out & becomes a walking, 
 bicycling, composting, tree hugging, polar bear saving, local food-eating 
 citizen), all while taking his baby daughter & caffeine loving, 
 retail-obsessed, television-addicted wife along with him. \n\nThis is a not 
 for profit event. All extra proceeds will be sent as a donation to the No 
 Impact Project, the non-profit organization founded by Colin Beavan 
 following his no impact year, and the Center For a New American Dream, an 
 organization that helps Americans consume more responsibly. \n\n\n
