 topics discussing the important environmental issues of our time. All are 
 welcome, Sierra Club members as well as nonmembers.  \n\nOn February 14, 
 2020 Join us for an exciting evening to learn all about bats! Among the 
 world's most populous mammals, they are often the least understood, and the 
 least appreciated. Please come and support a new feature documentary about 
 the role of bats in our ecosystem, and the humans working hard to protect 
 them. White-nose syndrome is a fungal disease decimating bat colonies 
 across the United States and Canada. Since 2006, approximately 7 million 
 bats have perished. You'll see a segment from the film, The Invisible 
 Mammal, and hear more about the project from director Kristin Tieche. 
 You'll come away with a new appreciation for these incredible animals, and 
 an opportunity to become part of this film project. \n\nKristin Tieche is 
 an award-winning filmmaker. Her work has aired on National Geographic, 
 Smithsonian Channel, Science Channel, Al Jazeera America, PBS, CBS5, Fox 
 Worldwide, Link TV, Fine Living Channel, Food Network and Home and Garden.
