What we’re about
Are you passionate about climate change and want to engage with the topic through a more literary perspective? Or an avid reader who has just started getting more interested in reading and discussing climate change/environment-related books with like-minded folks? If so, welcome! You're in the right place. Virtual/online-friendly Meetup!
We read a combination of nonfiction and fiction books related to climate change and the environment and meet once a month to discuss them (some past books include Braiding Sweetgrass, Weather, The Value of a Whale). We also do periodic movie discussions to take a break between books (usually films available on Netflix).
I'm based in LA and our meetings are run on Pacific Standard Time (usually Saturdays at 11 am PST), but since we meet virtually over Zoom, members from all over the globe are welcome!

•OnlineOctober Climate/Environment Movie Club - The Bay
OnlineHi climate/movie friends!
In light of spooky season, we're going to watch a haunting ecological horror (eco-horror) found footage movie this October called The Bay. Short synopsis below:
Ecological disaster befalls a coastal Maryland town after a chicken farm pollutes the Chesapeake Bay with toxins, causing something terrifying to sicken the residents. The story is told through "found footage" collected by a reporter named Donna, who documents the horror inflicting the town.
Please watch the movie *before* joining the meeting and come ready to discuss.
The movie is free to watch on Tubi and available to rent for $3.99 on YouTube, Google Play, Amazon Prime and Apple TV. Make sure you watch the right movie, since there are one or two other releases with the same title.
Hope to see you then!
