AMHERST — A free public screening of the film “Containment” will be held at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday at Daemen College’s Schenk Hall (room 107), 4380 Main St.

The film discusses the intractable problem of what to do with long-lived nuclear waste and how we might protect humans and other living things from hazardous waste exposure, now and into the future.

Following the film, there will be a  panel discussion of the West Valley Nuclear Waste Facility, our very own nuclear waste storage site 30 miles south of Buffalo.

The event is hosted by the Sierra Club Niagara Group with NIRS, CEC, SNI/WaterWalkerz,
Daemen College Global & Local Sustainability Program and Paul A. Saffrin Center for Sustainability & Civic Engagement
