For The Blue: Movie screening and panel discussion

For The Blue documents how plastic pollution is damaging our environment in New Zealand, whilst showing the real world solutions on how to fix it. The talented team spent 3 years documenting their journey, spending time in places like Hawaii, Malaysia and at home here in New Zealand, seeing the consequences of where our waste is ending up.

They speak to people who are leading the plastic free movement, whilst documenting how we can all be part of the solution, rather than the problem. The goal? To inspire the next generation of change makers, to think big about the issues we face, and to act.

Followed by a panel discussion looking at the impact of plastic in our environment and what we can do about it, questions welcome.

Panel and audience discussion with:

For the Blue film-maker Adriana Bird
Marine scientist Veronica Rotman
Wastebusters Zero Waste Expert Gina Dempster
