Film Night @GROW: Healthy Marin Watersheds and Creeks

Across our nation, a watershed approach to protecting our creeks is occurring, bringing back to life the riparian ecosystem and the iconic and keystone species that live there. When we restore our watersheds we give clean water, biodiversity, recreation, beauty, food and enjoyment to future generations.

Join Guest Speakers, Laura Chariton and Laurette Rogers as we find out ways we can all be part of the solution to restored watersheds and creeks.

We will view A Simple Question: an inspiring film that chronicles students’ efforts to save an endangered species. Laurette Rogers is an extraordinary 4th grade teacher who helped her students answer the question “what can we do to save endangered species?”

Following this film, we will have a power-point presentation by Laura Chariton, an exemplary watershed specialist and founder of Watershed Alliance of Marin, on how finite and precious fresh water is. She will explore what we can do to restore creeks and watersheds for future generations and the species that rely on them. It starts with a simple question. What happens next is up to you.
