LHG & BPL "Film Series" during April

Three films & discussions were offered at the Burlington Public Library as part of April 2008 events to help create awareness of the need for conservation of natural resources.

The films gave us opportunities to exchange ideas about some current environmental issues & we tried to frame discussions with Aldo Leopold in mind. Films (CDs) are available at the BPL & included: "Kilowatt Ours" about producing energy from coal & renewable energy options; "Respect Yo' Mama"- Recycling(special thanks to Hal Morton for landfill information), and "Who Killed the Electric Car?" -a history of electric cars to today's hybrids. Thanks to Dawn Hayslett and other library staff for organizing the series and to discussion leaders Dan Ring, Jerry Parks and Jerry Rigdon.

We would be interested in individual responses to the films and comments on whether we should continue to offer such activities?
