How can homeowners learn about underground leaks? Can municipal governments fund such huge infrastructure repair costs? What is possible, as citizens respond to the conflicting needs for access to water and the costs of supplying it? The 35-member audience at Iowa Wesleyan College asked these and other questions after the screening of The Water Front in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, on Wednesday, October 22, 2008.

liz — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 20:18:01 -0600

Tonight we did our first carbon free screening and Q & A with UBC Okanagan in Kelowna, Canada. Over 60 students attended the screening which was scheduled as a part of John Wagner's Environmental Anthropology course. We did a video conference through skype which turned out to be really easy! The questions were terrific and included; How is it possible that people's water can be turned off and who is ultimately responsible? Could this situation happen in a city that was not defined by a "one-track economy?

We are all trying to watch our carbon footprint and "The Water Front" along with UBC Okanagan in Kelowna has figured out a way to do this through a Green Friendly skype conference. Before and after the film, we will conduct a live video Q&A with Liz Miller which will be projected (just like the film) on the big screen. We will report on this later as we would like to repeat this on other places!
