Coal Country Movie Screening TONIGHT

Coal Country

8pm, November 10th

Woodburn Hall rm. 120

Coal Country is a new documentary exploring modern coal mining and the controversy over such practices as strip mining and Mountain Top Removal. Set to officially premier the 14th on Discovery Channel, this focuses on coal’s cradle-to-grave portrait, and the environmental and community impact the mere extraction of coal causes, before the latter issues of global warming and harmful emissions emerge.

Jason Wilber, a local musician who worked on the companion CD to Coal Country, will speak before the film.
