Film “Comfort Zone: A documentary exploring climate change in upstate New York” at the Brighton Memorial Library

ColorBrightonGreen.org presents The 2014 Winter Film Series at the Brighton Memorial Library, 2300 Elmwood Avenue, in the Friends Learning Center.

What does climate change mean in a place where it's not an obvious threat? Where sea level rise isn't a factor, and frankly, where people might like it to be a little warmer? Three filmmakers set out to answer those questions for Upstate New York. The answers were not so simple.

Comfort Zone brings the global issue of climate change to a local and personal level. It's the story of what happens when we try to translate this global problem to our individual lives. What is at stake? What can I do about it? What if dealing with this problem asks things of me that I'm not yet ready to give?

The climate is already changing. Now what about us?
