SUMMARY:Film Premiere/Q&A: Stop Danskammer
DESCRIPTION:Stop Danskammer is a short documentary set in Newburgh\, NY\, which shows how environmental and racial justice are two sides of the same coin. \nOn one side\, we meet local activists working hard to keep a fracked gas power plant from opening in their city–and who would think they would have to in a state where fracking is banned? On the other\, we learn that dangerous projects like this are often built in communities of color\, where developers believe the residents are least likely to defend themselves from the air and water pollution the projects cause. But the community of Newburgh refuses to conform to these expectations\, and are standing up to say “Stop Danskammer!” \nPlease join us for a short\, virtual film premiere on January 19th! This free event will include a screening\, along with a Q&A discussion with the filmmakers\, featured speakers and community leaders. \nRSVP HERE  \nFeaturing:\nGlenn Singleton / Racial Equity Leader of Courageous Conversation Global Foundation\nNickesha Chung / Community Outreach Coordinator at Scenic Hudson\nRene Meija\, Jr / Nobody leaves Mid-Hudson\nMark Sanchez-Potter / Newburgh Clean Water Project\nAura Lopez Zarate / Raiz of Planned Parenthood\nHayley Carlock\, Lawyer / Director of Environmental Advocacy at Scenic Hudson \nThis event is brought to you by New Paltz Climate Action Coalition and Flicker Filmworks\, with support from Hudsy.tv and Courageous Conversations Global Foundation. Co-sponsors include Clearwater\, Interfaith Earth Action\, Resisterhood\, U-Act\, Stop Danskammer Coalition\, Food & Water Watch\, Care for Creation-Croton on Hudson\, ResistSpectra\, Newburgh Clean Water Project\, Mid-Hudson Valley DSA\, New Paltz Climate Smart Taskforce\, Mothers Out Front Dutchess County\, Dutchess County Progressive Action Alliance\, 350 NJ-Rockland\, Climate Smart Gardiner\, Scenic Hudson\, Sane Energy Project\, & Protecting Our Waters.

SUMMARY:Virtual Film Screening and Discussion “Farmscape Ecology” 
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the Hudson Valley Farm Hub on Zoom.\nFarming is ever-evolving.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Hudson Highlands Open Space Gone Viral
DESCRIPTION:Scenic Hudson joins the Hudson Highland Land Trust for the latest in their series of “Bringing Nature to You” webinars. \nTrails in the Hudson Highlands area “went viral” on social media well before the COVID-19 pandemic. Now\, with millions of neighboring city residents cooped up inside for months\, even more people are flocking to the Highlands to experience the great outdoors. \nOn one hand\, this is public parkland paid for by the residents of New York State. On the other\, the terrain in the Highlands imposes physical limitations\, creating bottlenecks that can lead to overcrowding and a health hazard during a pandemic. \nRepresentatives from Scenic Hudson\, Hudson Highlands Land Trust\, New York-New Jersey Trail Conference and the NYS Office of Parks\, Recreation and Historic Preservation will discuss how the balance between public access and overcrowding is being addressed\, and answer questions from the community. \nThe webinar is FREE\, but advance registration is required. \nSee this page to reserve your spot.
