Morris Screening of Plastic People: The Hidden Crisis of Microplastics
September 8, 2025 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Morris Screening of Plastic People: The Hidden Crisis of Microplastics
Join us and the Morris Model to explore the microplastic public health crisis present in our community and everyday life.
We’ll kick things off with a screening of Plastic People: The Hidden Crisis of Microplastics, a documentary that uncovers how tiny plastic particles have infiltrated our food, water, air, and our bodies, both globally and at a local level.
After the screening, stay for a thought-provoking discussion about what this means for public health, the land we live and work on, and our everyday choices. What steps can we take as individuals and communities to address this urgent issue? How can we push for solutions that go beyond recycling?
We’ll also be joined by Mary Kosuth, a special guest from the University of Minnesota School of Public Health!
Whether you’re passionate about community health, curious about the science behind microplastics, or simply looking to learn more, this event is for you. Let’s talk about what’s at stake—and how we can be part of the change.
This event is free & open to all, and movie snacks are provided.
The film will start at 6 p.m. with conversation to follow.
