Thursday March 26th: In partnership with the Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival , Tompkins County Climate Policy Initiative & Fossil Free Tompkins

My Country No More: Between 2011 and 2016, oil drilling in rural North Dakota reached its peak. With billions of dollars to be gained in an industry-friendly state with a “reasonable regulation” climate, small towns become overwhelmed by an influx of workers, and countless acres of farmland were repurposed for industrial development. Through the voices of one towns residents, My Country No More challenges the notion of “progress” and questions the long-term human consequences of short-term approaches to land use, decisions that ultimately affect all Americans, rural and urban alike.

Sponsored by Tompkins Trust Company
