Earth Hub Movie Night

Start: Wednesday, September 11, 2019 6:00 PM

Earth Hub Nelson are excited to be hosting a Movie Night on September 11! We will be showing the film ‘The Economics of Happiness’ and then having a potluck supper - so please bring a plate! This is an open event, and everyone is welcome!

'The Economics of Happiness' features a chorus of voices from six continents calling for systemic economic change. The documentary describes a world moving simultaneously in two opposing directions. On the one hand, government and big business continue to promote globalisation and the consolidation of corporate power. At the same time, all around the world people are resisting those policies, demanding a re-regulation of trade and finance - and, far from the old institutions of power, they're starting to forge a very different future. Communities are coming together to re-build more human scale, ecological economies based on a new paradigm - an economics of localisation.

The Earth Hub is a community centre where people and groups that work around the climate emergency, environmental issues, resilience and community building can meet, share knowledge and plan actions to make Nelson, and the world, a better place.
