A Film, Pizza and Wine Evening: Ecological Pessimism, Hope and Paul Kingsnorth

Join us for an engaging and thought-provoking evening of film, delicious pizza, and delightful wine as we first watch a 50-minute long documentary, and then (over dinner) delve into the themes of ecological pessimism, hope, and the views and life of author and environmentalist, Paul Kingsnorth. As per the film description (VPRO 2018): > "Humanity has lost the battle against climate change. That is what Paul Kingsnorth thinks. The former environmental activist believes that we can't stop climate change anymore. How should we live on knowing that climate change is a fact that can't be denied anymore? A documentary that gives thinker and writer Paul Kingsnorth the time to explain how humanity still can be hopeful although the battle against climate change in his eyes has been lost." For a preview, [you can find the film here on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_s8Vo00Xug).
