Rethinking Industry & Planet: Beyond Zero Screening & Panel Discussion

  • The Little Theatre 240 East Avenue Rochester, NY, 14607 United States (map)

Join NextCorps Clean Energy Manufacturing Hub and RIT’s Golisano Institute for Sustainability for a free screening and panel discussion of the documentary film, Beyond Zero.

Beyond Zero doesn’t fit in the usual documentary marketplace. Capitalism is often perceived as the problem - accelerating climate change, income inequalities, injustices and more. And, that’s true. What if capitalism reimagined could also be the solution? If we were to align profit with people and the planet, could we unleash a force to positive change at scale?

To answer these questions, the feature documentary follows a $1 billion, global carpet company called Interface as it begins to recognize the environmental harm it causes, and the journey that transformed it into one of the most sustainable companies on Earth.
