LAMONT 75 presents:

The Memory of Darkness, Light, and Ice

A screening of the award-winning 60-minute documentary, The Memory of Darkness, Light, and Ice (2024). Directed by former evolutionary biologist Kathy Kasic, the film features surprising discoveries about the Greenland Ice Sheet by climate scientists, including Columbia’s Dorothy Peteet and Joerg Schaefer. The film meditates on the uses of scientific knowledge of the past, the urgency of global warming for our future, and the challenge of spurring action in the present. There will be a panel discussion with the director and Columbia faculty following the screening.
