 Element'\n\nMatthew Testa/2018/76 min/Climate Change\n\nFILM DESCRIPTION: 
 Renowned photographer James Balog (prominently featured in “Chasing 
 Ice”) uses his camera to reveal how environmental change is affecting the 
 lives of everyday Americans. Following the four classical elements—air, 
 earth, fire and water—to frame his journey, Balog explores wildfires, 
 hurricanes, sea level rise, coal mining, and the changes in the air we 
 breathe. He takes it further by examining the effects of the fifth 
 element—the human element—to tell an urgent story while giving 
 inspiration for a more balanced relationship between humanity and 
 nature.\n\nAfter the film, join us on Zoom for a live facilitated chat with 
 "The Human Element" producer and award-winning photographer James Balog 
 (also appeared in the 2012 film, "Chasing Ice"). He is Founder and 
 President of Earth Vision Institute.\n\nConversation will be facilitated by 
 Doug Dixon, Principal at Sales Performance and Solutions, OUR Community.
