Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret is a groundbreaking feature-length environmental documentary following intrepid filmmaker Kip Andersen as he uncovers the most destructive industry facing the planet today – and investigates why the world’s leading environmental organizations are too afraid to talk about it.

We hosted the film on all four campuses at Portland Community College. Kim Smith helped lead the discussion with Kristin Taylor at PCC Sylvania.
