BAG IT-- the Movie

Americans use 60,000 plastic bags every 5 minutes. Where do bags and other plastics end up and at what cost to our environment, marine life and human health?  BAG IT follows "everyman" Jeb Barrier as he navigates our plastic world and discovers that virtually everything in modern society is made with plastic or contains potentially harmful chemical additives used in the plastic making process. When Jeb's journey takes a personal twist, we see how our carzy-for-plastic world has finally caught up with us and what we can do about it.

There will be a Q & A after the screening. Yummy pretzels snacks and a sure sighting of the BAG MONSTER!
