Seacoast Environmental Film Festival

 I was excited to participate in a panel affter the showing of "Revolutions" a short documentary about the bicyle waste stream being created by the volume of cheap bicycles being manufactured.   https://kitterylandtrust.weebly.com/seacoastenvironmentalfilmfestival.html   This annual event is a celebration of the many folks working hard to preserve our environment thorugh documentaries and local vendors offering information and advice.

Bicycle waste is the equivalent of the "Fast Fashion" waste crisis and I was happy to be able to show this film to the Teen Science Cafe Leader Team at APEX.  You can watch it here:
