Join the California Nurses Association at a free special Labor Screening of “This Changes Everything,” a flim by Avi Lewis and Naomi Klein, based on her best-selling book about climate chaos.

The film will be followed by a conversation among rank-and-file workers who have been impacted by ecological crisis and labor leaders whose unions are throwing down for climate justice.

As Naomi recently told union members: “Our current economic model is not only waging war on workers, on communities, on public services and social safety nets. It’s waging war on the life support systems of the planet itself. The conditions for life on earth. Climate change: It’s not an “issue” for you to add to the list of things to worry about it. It is a civilizational wake up call. A powerful message – spoken in the language of fires, floods, storms and droughts – telling us that we need an entirely new economic model, one based on justice and sustainability.”
