Green Screen Film Series: The Story of Plastic

Illinois State University’s Center for Math, Science and Technology and the ISU Office of Sustainability invite campus and community members to The Green Screen: A Climate Change Film Series. Films feature a different topic each month, with a focus on the global climate change crisis. This month’s film is The Story of Plastic. This film reveals the ugly truth behind plastic pollution and the false solution of plastic recycling. Different from every other plastic documentary you’ve seen, The Story of Plastic presents a cohesive timeline of how we got to our current global plastic pollution crisis and how the oil and gas industry has successfully manipulated the narrative around it.
