Thousands of miles away from civilization, Midway Atoll is in one of the most remote places on earth. And yet, it has become ground zero for The Great Pacific Garbage Patch, siphoning plastics from three distant continents.

Please join us for a free film screening of Plastic Paradise, a film that follows journalist/ filmmaker Angela Sun as she seeks to uncover the cause of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. With testimony from scientists, researchers, influencers, and volunteers, this film sheds light on the effects of our rabid plastic consumption.
