How to Boil a Frog!
The Mission 4/1 Earth team continues their monthly film series in October with the film “How to Boil a Frog”.
“How to Boil a Frog” is a highly entertaining eco-comedy (documentary film) that mixes rapid-fire humor with hard-hitting facts to show the consequences of too many people using up too little planet, much too fast — and provides five surprising ways that regular people can help save civilization while making our lives better now.
We will gather for a light supper and film at 6:30 pm!
