Join the Coastal Acidification Networks and Congresswoman Chellie Pingree for a screening of the short film 'Changing Waters: Time for Action on Ocean Acidification!'

'Changing Waters' is a short film that brings forward the voices of coastal and island communities from the Pacific to the Caribbean to the U.S. West Coast. Their stories show that ocean acidification is not a distant threat but a lived reality impacting shellfish, coastal fisheries, and cultural heritage right now. The screening will be kicked off by an introduction by Congresswoman Chellie Pingree and followed by a talkback, so bring your questions about the film and about how you can connect with your region’s Coastal Acidification Network to take action on coastal acidification.
