COMPASS: A film for Earth Day
Contributed by The Compass - Posted: April 8, 2009 2:00:00 PM
Right now Earth is looking pretty fragile as it suffers from increasing human punishment. To examine the issue, CNN produced the documentary 'Planet in Peril,' which gives a familiar story new urgency. It is an eye-opening, often heart-wrenching exploration. 'Planet in Peril' dispatched correspondents Anderson Cooper and Dr. Sanjay Gupta, as well as Animal Planet wildlife biologist Jeff Corwin, to report on far-flung instances of 'environmental change.' This term encompasses four key areas: climate change, vanishing natural habitats, disappearing species and human overpopulation.
Details: Part 1 airs at 7 p.m. April 14 at Lumina Theater, in the Fisher Student Center at UNCW, 601 S. College Road. The series is free. For information, call 386-6435 or log on to www.uncw.edu/lumina.
