Stockton College to Screen "Chasing Ice" Documentary

The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey will screen the award-winning documentary "Chasing Ice" twice over the next two weeks, the Go Green Task Force for Sustainability announced this week.

The first screening is Monday afternoon, April 22, in the Board of Trustees room at noon. The second showing is Monday night, April 29, 7 p.m. at the Student Center Theater.

"Chasing Ice" is the story of one man’s mission to change the tide of history by gathering undeniable evidence of our changing planet. Within months of his first trip to Iceland, the photographer conceived the boldest expedition of the life: The Extreme Ice Survey. James Balog and a band of young adventurers began to deploy time-lapse cameras across the brutal Arctic to capture a multi-year record of the world’s changing glaciers.

"Chasing Ice" depicts a photographer trying to deliver evidence and hope to our carbon-powered planet.
