Bloomsburg University to Screen Final Green Campus Film of the Semester
Bloomsburg, PA (04/01/2022) — Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania is screening its final Green Campus Initiative film of the semester, "The Wild," on Tuesday, April 19, at 7 p.m. in the McCormick Center, room 1303. The show is free and open to the public.
Bristol Bay in Alaska's chilled waters provide the only place in the world where the life cycle of salmon is fully intact. This resource not only supplies food for people throughout North America and beyond, but it also supports the world's last indigenous people's culture based on these fish. But a proposed copper mine could bring all of that to an end
"The Wild" examines the threat to the world's last intact salmon fun which supplies half of the world's salmon and the massive dredge and fill Pebble copper mine that very well may end it.
