Five Part Film and Discussion Series
Discoveries That Changed How We See The World
Presented by former Conval oceanography teacher Jon Manley
Free and open to the public.
Part 1 - April 8: Climate Change
Chasing Ice - a film by James Balog documenting the melting of the world's glaciers, awarded for its stunning photography and message.
Part 2 - April 15: Climate Change
Presentation of the physics behind how the wind patterns, the ocean currents, the color of the earth and temperature changes cause weather and change the climate.
Part 3 - April 22: Chemistry of Life
Film - The Mysterious Life of Caves. Simple chemical principles and discussion about the implications that cave discoveries have for deep ocean life and climates.
Part 4 - April 29: New Theory of Extinction
Film - The Last Extinction. This film follows the clues found in ice to support a theory that a comet collided with the earth 12,900 years ago. This collision is tied to the extinction of the Mega Fauna living at that time.
Part 5 - May 6: Deep Ocean Life
Film - Deep Ocean. This film shows incredible creatures of the deep sea. The discussion that follows will focus on the work of the Census of Marine Life Project, a ten year study of deep ocean life.
