'Living Downstream' to show at UNI

CEDAR FALLS, Iowa -- UNI's Center for Energy and Environmental Education (CEEE) will show the documentary "Living Downstream," at 7 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 10, at the CEEE auditorium on the University of Northern Iowa campus.

"Living Downstream" is based on the acclaimed book by ecologist and cancer survivor Sandra Steingraber, Ph.D. "Our environment is playing a bigger role in the story of cancer than previously assumed," said Steingraber. This feature-length documentary follows Steingraber during one year as she travels across North America, working to break the silence about cancer and its environmental links.

The event is free and open to the public. For more information, visit www.ceee.uni.edu or call 319-273-2573.
