[Coral-List] Fwd: Chasing Coral is now streaming on Netflix

[James Hendee - NOAA Federal]

For some reason, Dr. Mark Eakin's post is not making it through the
List, so I am herewith forwarding it in hopes that it goes through this
time.  (We don't usually do this for people so that list members don't
ask us for more info on the subject, rather the person who is sending
the post; and also because we couldn't possibly do this for all 9,400
members.)

Today, the new 90 minute film Chasing Coral
<http://chasingcoral.com/> has been released on Netflix
<https://www.netflix.com/title/80168188>.

Chasing Coral takes viewers on a thrilling ocean adventure as a team of
divers, photographers, and scientists set out to discover why reefs
around the world are vanishing at an unprecedented rate and provides a
look at this underwater world so few of us have the opportunity to see
up close. You can view the trailer here
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6fHA9R2cKI&feature=youtu.be>. 

The film will appeal to a wide audience, far beyond those who already
love coral reefs and understand the impact climate change is having on
them. Chasing Coral already has won awards from many film festivals,
including The US Documentary Audience Award at Sundance Film Festival,
the Audience Choice and Student Awards at MountainFilm, Audience
Favorite at the Princeton Environmental Film Festival, Best
Environmental Film and Best of Fest at the International Wildlife Film
Festival, and Best Call2Action, Best Documentary, and Peoples Choice,
Feature Length Film at the Boulder International Film Festival. 

You can watch Chasing Coral now on Netflix, or at a community screening
<http://www.chasingcoral.com/screenings/> near you. If you’d like to get
involved after watching the film, I encourage you to sign up to host a
free community screening. Simply pick a date and location then complete
the Registration Form <http://www.chasingcoral.com/impact-screening/>.
>From there the Chasing Coral team will follow up with some additional
materials to help make your screening extra special. 

Cheers,
Mark
