Carl (+3 guests)“ The group was big (about 45), and the food was yummy. The doc was disappointing. lovely footage but not as well-balanced with answers as the Carbon Nation movie. Inspiring eco movies tend to offer more carrot than stick. Was put off by the 'introduce yourself' session. I hope they don't do that for every event. ” -
“ Very informative movie! Thanks Siri and Hannah for organizing! Love the yummy Loving Hut snacks! ” -
Dax, Shannon and Mark (+1 guest)“ what a great group, let's keep spreading the word about eco-sustainability issues ” -
“ Hannah and Siri, thank you for organizing this meeting! It was a great film... we should all tell our friends to see it! ” -
“ This screening of "Home" was my first CGE event, and it was wonderful! I was really moved by the generosity of the organizers/volunteer
s and the passionate intelligence of those who attended. Loving Hut's food was delicious and the after-film conversations were stimulating. I'd never expect a documentary to address the myriad of eco-challenges we face... just to provoke our thoughts and actions in response to them. Mission Accomplished. ”

“ Great documentary. Global warming and resource depletion viewed from different angles. Aerial view approach was probably the best way to show us what we don't see and what we don't know. Question session was also great. Now we need to lobby our "dear" politician to start taking real action on the matter. Good job CGE ” -
“ It was a great joint meetup between 3 groups. Beautiful film, good discussion and tasty food! Thank you everyone for joining us! ” -
“ I enjoyed the movie, food and company. Thanks again for the event! ” -
“ Great movie and a lot of energy in the group. Tasty food too. ” -
“ Thank you for picking this movie to view. After the introduction, where all things were not only beautiful, but the earth's creation was explained, I started to get a sense of hopelessness. I was really happy, to learn, at the end of the film, that some countries are doing things right. That some places in the world are being safeguarded, and that the idea of sustainability is growing. Incidentally, there was a LEED contractor in the audience, who I lost sight of, during my chats with others. I have so many questions to ask him, and I can't help but wonder if he might be willing to conduct a post event lecture, for a future event, on things people can do around their homes....especially if a remodel is being planned. If not, maybe he can just contact me, since I'd like to make some plans. ” -

Congrats to Hannah & Siri for a very successful event!
Vadim, I really would like to go but I am at another event in the morning. In case I am too late to make it I hope I am not holding a seat... not sure what is the best way to do it but just to let you know. thank you.
Such a bummer that my birthday is the 15th and I must choose between this and Phish: Alpine Valley :(
This is the only official site to RSVP for this event. We look forward to seeing everyone there. Thanks!
