Climate Change Film Festival: Big Oil Night February 21, 2007

Is global warming a global emergency? Are there energy alternatives to fossil fuels? Get answers at Big Oil Night, the first night of the 2 Degrees Climate Crisis Film Festival, a free event presented by the Vancouver Public Library and the Sierra Club.

Join top energy expert Dr. Mark Jaccard (Professor, SFU School of Resource and Environmental Management) as he comments on the evening's two films and provides additional insight into the global energy and climate situation. It's sure to be a stimulating and controversial discussion!
