Get out your air-popped popcorn and organically-sweetened soda, because we’re going to the movies…eco-style!

Yesterday afternoon marked the official opening of the 17th annual Environmental Film Festival in Washington D.C.

With 136 eco-themed documentary, feature, animated, archival, experimental and children’s films, this year’s festival sounds like it’s gonna be the jam!

One film that we’re particularly looking forward to is the world premiere of The State of the Planet’s Oceans, hosted and narrated by Matt Damon. And that won’t be the only film you’ll find about water pollution!

This year’s festival is introducing a special Ocean Film Series, featuring movies like A Sea Change, Poisoned Waters and At the Edge of the World — a documentary on the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society.
