Confronting the Climate Crisis is a shorts program, multiple films are part of this screening.
Miranda Wang and Jeanny Yao were still in high school when they discovered plastic-eating bacteria in Vancouver’s Fraser River. Passionate about the problem of plastic waste, the two millennial innovators are now on an inspiring journey to solve it. Their dedication has taken them all the way from Vancouver to Silicon Valley. From bacteria to cutting edge chemistry, their story has illuminated one of our earth’s biggest eco disasters.
Watch this film as part of our shorts program "Confronting the Climate Crisis" in the ReFrame Virtual Theatre.

TRACKS (Trent Aboriginal Cultural Knowledge and Science) facilitates dynamic, land-based youth programming that braids multiple scientific approaches by centring Indigenous ways of knowing and being.
Many young people are acutely aware of the precarious state of our planet but lack understanding of the complexity of issues and solutions and have rarely been given the means and opportunity to take positive, meaningful action. Youth Leadership in Sustainability (YLS) is an innovative experiential educational program that prepares grade 11 and 12 students in the Peterborough regions for leadership roles in pursuing sustainability at the local and global levels. The YLS classroom is on Trent University campus (and PACE @ PCVS) but the program takes students into the forests, the community, and the region.
