Free Virtual Screening: “Carbon: The Unauthorized Biography”
Cool Davis has partnered with the One Earth Film Festival based in Chicago to offer free tickets to our community to a global online screening and discussion program of “Carbon: The Unauthorized Biography” Tuesday, April 23 starting at 4pm Pacific Standard Time (PST) (6pm Central Daylight Time), the final offering of this year’s One Earth Film Festival.
This surprising documentary reveals the paradoxical story of the element that builds all life and yet may end it all. With carbon in the news every day, you might think you know everything about her. But you’d be wrong. This spectacular and surprisingly unorthodox documentary reveals the paradoxical story of the element that builds all life, and yet may end it all. Narrated in first person by Sarah Snook, “Carbon” tells of her birth in the violent core of an exploding star and of turbulent sagas through the fabric of our evolving Earth. Accompanied by celebrated scientists (including Neil deGrasse Tyson, renowed astrophysicist and science communicator), unique animations and a stunning orchestral score, “Carbon” reminds us of our humble participation in the most extraordinary story in the universe.

Cool Davis is hoping all our friends living in Rancho Yolo remain well! This is a reminder of our fragile grid and the need to look after each other during heat emergencies. Hurray that the City of Davis City now has Social Services staff to join City of Davis Fire Department to assist when a vulnerable neighborhood's power goes down.
For other down neighborhoods - remember to check on your neighbors! If your power is still on consider ways to reduce your energy use pre-cool , cover windows, delay appliance use, double up with neighbors in a cool location - cooling center (see City post for cooling center info), movie theater etc to reduce loads. After the emergency, move forward on your plans for how you will reduce and manage energy use in the future. We have to stand together to adapt to new climate challenges. Cool Davis and our many partners are here to help.
