Film Screening – Age of Consequences

Hosted by the Wildflower Climate Change Action Team and Extinction Rebellion ATX –

The Wildflower Climate Change Action Team and Extinction Rebellion ATX are hosting a screening of “Age of Consequences” at Wildflower Unitarian Universalist Church. Age of Consequences is an Emmy-nominated investigation of how climate change affects national security.   “Graphically illustrating how years of unprecedented drought have contributed to the rise of radicalization in Syria, Afghanistan and Sudan, as well as catastrophes yet to come, such as sea-level rise and mass displacement in Bangladesh, the film lays bare the implications for global conflict. It also shows the vulnerabilities at home, from Katrina to Superstorm Sandy’s crippling effects on New York City, to projections that the world’s largest military base, in Norfolk, Virginia, is on track for frequent flooding as soon as 2040.”
