Join us at the Riverside Amphitheather to see a solar powered Happy Feet!

Sorry, this event is over.

Date:
August 31st @ 7:30 PM

Description:

In conjunction with the City of New Albany, the New Albany Farmer’s Market, and Develop New Albany, Greenpeace’s Global Warming Story Tour will be at the New Albany Riverside Amphitheater to solar power a viewing of Happy Feet free of charge!

Local vendors will also be there to sell ice cream and smoothies, and the solar truck will be used to make free popcorn for all! Greenpeace activists and volunteers will also interview community members about how global warming is impacting their lives and what they are doing to fight it. Visitors will have an opportunity to record a video, write a postcard, or send an email to their leaders in Congress, as well as candidates for office, to demand action to end global warming.

Bring your entire family to watch Happy Feet outside, tell your story about why you care about global warming and learn more about renewable energy!

Background on the Rolling Sunlight: The tour is powered by the Rolling Sunlight, a demonstration and educational vehicle that runs on biodiesel and is equipped with 256-square-feet of solar panels that supply enough energy to power three homes, concerts, and events without creating any pollution. The solar power will run an action tent featuring a video station for visitors to learn more about global warming and computers wired to the Internet so they can send emails to Congress. Global warming will be a key issue this election year. Already, dozens of community members this year have joined with Greenpeace in asking the candidates for Congress to commit to ending the crisis.
