THE HEMLOCK WOOLY ADELGID
Thursday, July 23rd, 7:00 pm
@ Cinemapolis, 120 E. Green Street, Ithaca NY

 

FREE ADMISSION!
Film screening, followed by a Talkback with:

A species few people have heard of - yet it is devastating the Hemlock forests and the delicate ecosystems that depend upon them. The Hemlock Woolly Adelgid is infesting our own backyards of upstate New York and has already spread throughout the east coast of North America from the Carolinas up into Canada.  The film, The Hemlock Woolly Adelgid, aims to engage and educate the viewer on this all too often, over looked invasive species by explaining its past, present, and what could easily be the future if significant action is not taken.

Through the use of archival footage of other invasive forest pests and beautiful cinematic visuals, the film illustrates the vital importance of The Eastern Hemlock Tree as a foundation species in North American forests, and raises the questions of what should be done to prevent the spread of the Hemlock Woolly Adelgid and the growing phenomena of invasive species as a whole.
