    Name: Microplastic Madness - Outdoor Movie Night at SMLI
    Date: October 1, 2021
    Time: 5:30 PM - 8:30 PM EDT
    Event Description:
    Spend Friday evening, October 1 on the beautiful Science Museum of Long Island grounds for Outdoor Movie Night, featuring Microplastic Madness, an award-winning documentary film about 56 5th grade students from P.S. 15 in Red Hook, Brooklyn who deep dive into the root causes of plastic pollution. Taking on the roles of citizen scientists and community advocates, they collect and use their own local data to inform policy by testifying and rallying at City Hall. Then they turned their focus back to school, taking action in their cafeteria to eliminate all single-use plastic!
     
    This is the year We Break Free from Plastics! What can you do to reduce plastic usage and waste in your home, school and community? The Film Screening will start at 6:30. Gates open at 5:30 with a Beyond Plastics science fair. Come with your Family. Bring Friends. Be inspired!
