About This Event

"Unless we go to Circular it's game over for the planet. It's game over for society."

Closing The Loop is the world's first feature length documentary on the zero-waste / circular economy, supporting UN Sustainable Development Goal 12 on Responsible Production and Consumption. Gonzaga University is screening this film as part of our special two-day Presidential Speaker series Caring for our Common Home: Turning Local Action Into Global Impact. (Be sure to check out the April 8 lecture and panel discussion as well.)

This film is presented by global sustainability expert Prof. Dr. Wayne Visser, in collaboration with Emmy and two time Telly Award winning director Graham Ehlers Sheldon. The film ranges across three continents and includes commentary from global experts and centres of excellence like the World Economic Forum and the University of Cambridge. A number of innovative circular economy cases are also featured in detail.

This event is free and open to the public and no tickets are required.
