Carbon Dioxide Removal - preview of a documentary and movement

Third Thursday Environmental Series Presents:

Is the medium the message? Creating a documentary on carbon capture

In a world of disinformation, how does a citizen determine what is truthful? Enter Tree Media Group, a production company that “creates media to support and sustain civil society by telling inspiring stories.” On Thursday, February 15 at 6:30 pm, Leila Conners, Founder and Director of Tree Media Group, will discuss her newest project, Legion 44, a film on atmospheric carbon dioxide removal. Conners is both the writer and director of the film. The talk is free and available online via Zoom at or send an email to thirdthursdayseries@gmail.com for the link.

Conners founded Tree Media Group in August of 1996. During the past 25 years, Tree Media Group has worked with groups that include HBO, NASA, JPL, Harvard University, and Hollywood studios. She has also written for publications as diverse as the International Herald Tribune, Los Angeles Times, and Wired magazine. Recently, Conners founded N2K—Need to Know—an online channel that streams stories and solutions about the pressing issues of our time. Her future projects include a film on the most recent developments in renewable energy.

Third Thursday Series is a program of free, online events, organized by members of the Rochester, Marbletown, Rosendale, Gardiner, and Olive Environmental Conservation Commissions (ECC’s). Each month—every third Thursday—the series presents a free, online program on an environmental topic of general interest.
