Admission is free, and the public is welcome.

Screenings are scheduled for 1 to 3 p.m. as follows:

—Monday: “The Ecological Footprint: Accounting for a Small Planet”

—Tuesday: “When is Enough, Enough?: The Appetite for Oil”

—Wednesday: “Oil on Ice”

—Thursday: “Who Killed the Electric Car?: A Lack of Consumer Confidence … Or Conspiracy?”

—Friday: “In the Light of Reverence: Protecting America’s Sacred Lands”

The series is scheduled ahead of Earth Day to bring attention to critical environmental issues, from America’s dependence on oil to electric cars and ecology. Each film will address humanity’s responsibilities to the planet and to future generations.
