Screen Time Movie and Discussion

One generation from now, most people in the U.S. will have spent more time in the virtual world than in nature. Media technologies have improved our lives in many ways, but what are the consequences for our children, society, and planet? Join us for a viewing of the movie, PLAY AGAIN, and a discussion. PLAY AGAIN takes six teenagers who, like the average American child, spend over eight hours a day behind screens, unplugs them, and takes them on their first wilderness adventure. Through the teens and experts, the movie investigates the consequences of a childhood removed from nature and encourages action for a sustainable future. Screening co-sponsored by Sierra Club North Star Chapter.
