Join us at the historic Cathedral of the Madeleine in Salt Lake City for a screening of two films, including “Listen to their Voices,” Directed by Gabe Brown of our LDSES SLC Chapter, and “The Last Resort,” directed by Michael Fleischner. Following the film screening, we will host a forum featuring both directors to discuss their filmmaking and take questions. This will be a fun and informative evening for all! Drinks and snacks will be served!
The 2025 symposium will consider air pollution’s environmental and human health tolls—including the unequal burdens air pollution places on disadvantaged communities. Despite gains in many places, air pollution remains a vexing problem across the nation. In Utah, winters bring inversions and particulate matter pollution, and summers deliver increased ground-level ozone pollution. The Wasatch Front regularly exceeds national ambient air quality standards, exacerbated by the region’s unique geography and meteorology. Finding solutions to these thorny problems becomes only more vital with each passing year. Emerging threats like dust from the shrinking Great Salt Lake and intensifying wildfire smoke further compound longstanding air pollution problems. Experts will share potential solutions, including those that have found success in other parts of the country. LDSES will be tabling at this event. Those supporting tabling get free admission to this event. Please e-mail us at slc@ldsearthstewardship.org to volunteer.
