2040 is a hybrid feature documentary that looks to the future, but is vitally important NOW!

The 2040 journey began with award-winning director Damon Gameau (That Sugar Film). Motivated by concerns about the planet his 4-year-old daughter would inherit, Damon embarked on a global journey to meet innovators and changemakers in the areas of economics, technology, civil society, agriculture, education and sustainability. Drawing on their expertise, he sought to identify the best solutions, available to us now, that would help improve the health of our planet and the societies that operate within it. From marine permaculture to decentralised renewable energy projects, he discovered that people all over the world are taking matters into their own hands.

This journey is the central premise for the documentary ‘2040’, a story of hope that looks at the very real possibility that humanity could reverse global warming and improve the lives of every living thing in the process. It is a positive vision of what ‘could be’, instead of the dystopian future we are so often presented.

All outdoor films are FREE and begin at sunset.

Bring chairs, blankets, and picnics or visit the Plaza Cafe on Wheels food truck which will be on site for select films. No single use plastics, please.

Envisioning 2030 on the East End – a Post Film Discussion / Zoom Panel with Drawdown East End

Wednesday, July 22 | 4:30 PM | FREE

Tickets: Register on Zoom

Making 2040 by 2030!  Inspired by the film 2040, let’s envision the world at 2030 – what would it look like to have reduced our heat trapping emissions by half by 2030 and what are the paths forward to reach that goal.

Moderated by Dorothy Reilly, Co-Chair of Drawdown East End, panelists will include fellow Drawdown East End members speaking to both their vision of 2030 and paths forward.

Drawdown East End 
Drawdown East End is a grassroots group of citizens representing all five east end towns, with the rewarding mission to actively engage our communities in solutions that reduce greenhouse gas emissions to achieve drawdown and reverse global warming.
