directions. On the one hand, government and big business continue to promote globalization and the consolidation of corporate power. At the same time, all around the world people are resisting those policies, demanding a re-regulation of trade and finance—and, far from the old institutions of power, they’re starting to forge a very different future. Communities are coming together to re-build more human scale, ecological economies based on a new paradigm – an economics of localization.

Starting on Friday, March 4th and running through Thursday, March 10th, the Hollywood Theater will present Bag It!, a humble documentary that makes a lasting impression about the prevalence of plastic in our daily lives.
