It is a critical time to talk about this sub- ject since the world's popu- lation reached seven billion in 2011. At the same time, talking about population has become politically incorrect because of the sensitivity of the issues sur- rounding the topics of reli- gion, economics, family planning, and gender inequality. Yet it is an issue we cannot afford to ignore as one billion people still suffer from chronic hunger. The second film will be shown at 1 p.m. On Friday, April 27, followed by a stu- dent panel and discussion, in Room 806. This film is entitled Regeneration. This film takes an uncompro- mising look at the issues facing today's youth and young adults, and the influ- ences that perpetuate our culture's apathetic approach to social and political causes. It exam- ines our disconnection to nature, how much we con- sume, our loss of history, and the economic factors holding many of us back from becoming active com- munity participants. It is a story of US. This conference is spon- sored by the Shasta College Science, Language Arts, and Math Division (SLAMS) and the Shasta College Foundation.
