Environmental Film Screenings

Family Program

As part of Dutchess Watershed Month the Pawling Library proudly presents two important films: "After the Storm" and "RiverWebs," Most of our population is unaware of the wetlands that surround them. To fully maintain and preserve our priceless water supplies will require more than government involvement. Citizens must become aware and take an active part in the protection of our nation's water resources. "After the Storm", co-produced by EPA and The Weather Channel, takes a look at three examples of the interconnections between water supply, water quality and the economic vitality and quality of life in our communities.  Running time: 22 minutes. "RiverWebs", is a documentary about the intricate life and science of streams. This film examines an international group of river ecologists who share a story of tragedy, growth and recovery. Running time: 57 minutes. Seating is limited.
