Climate change and food are the big topics to be addressed in the 2020 Movies That Matter series. The public is invited to come view a special screening of the documentary, which focuses on Americans living in communities across the country wrestling with the legacy of the coal industry and what its future should be, at 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 6 at the Bainbridge Public Library.

Admission is free.

After the film there will be a community discussion with Phil Rockefeller, former state senator, and Ben Avery of the Sierra Club.
