Bringing neighbors together to confront the growing impact of plastic pollution on our health and environment
Reading, MA — In recognition of Earth Day, the Reading Climate Advisory Committee, in collaboration with Beyond Plastics Greater Boston, invites the community to a free public screening of the powerful new documentary, Plastic People: The Hidden Crisis of Microplastics, on Tuesday, April 22, 2025 at the Reading Public Library.
The event will take place in the library’s Community Room at 7:00 PM (doors open at 6:30 PM). Seating is limited, and free tickets are available now—reserve your spot today!
Plastic People is a groundbreaking investigation into humanity’s reliance on plastic and the alarming impact of microplastics on our health. The film explores how nearly every piece of plastic ever made eventually breaks down into microscopic particles that now permeate the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat.
Parents be advised: This documentary includes brief surgical scenes and may not be suitable for young children.
This important screening is part of a broader effort to raise awareness and spark action around plastic pollution and its invisible but urgent consequences.
