Topics: Climate and Sustainability, Theatre and Cinema

Description : To celebrate Campus Sustainability Month, the UNO Office of Sustainability is showing Normal is Over. This event is free and open to the public light snacks to be provided. Normal is Over is a compelling and visually rich film that chronicles the way humans have inadvertently imperiled our planet: species extinction, climate change, the depletion of critical natural resources, and industrial control of our food production. This unique documentary examines how our economic and financial system connects all of these issues, and offers solutions, which could be implemented immediately, from practical everyday fixes to rethinking the overarching myths of our time. The film follows Renee Scheltema on a multinational voyage, meeting not only prominent experts, but also everyday citizens who concentrate on matters such as organic agriculture, the banning of plastic, saving species, ecological economics, sustainable architecture, renewable energy, and more.
