 RTC Meditation Club - Friday Movie Night

Movie to be screened at Deer Park Hall, YDF

At 6:30 PM on 25 August ‘17

Everyone Welcome

 Coral Chasing:

Coral reefs are the nursery for all life in the oceans, a remarkable ecosystem that sustains us. Yet with carbon emissions warming the seas, a phenomenon called "coral bleaching" - a sign of mass coral death - has been accelerating around the world, and the public has no idea of the scale or implication of the catastrophe silently raging underwater. Chasing Coral taps into the collective will and wisdom of an ad man, a self-proclaimed coral nerd, top-notch camera designers, and renowned marine biologists as they invent the first time-lapse camera to record bleaching events as they happen.

Those interested to attend the movie should inform the club coordinator, Sonam (17544081), one day ahead of the screening. Please note that the bus picks up students from YDF is at 8:45 PM.
