Maybe the energy these kayakers generate can power a small village.

Developing renewable energy is not always a positive choice, especially when large hydroelectric plants threaten a way of life for many people who rely on rivers—and not just for extreme kayakers. The Last Descent details how dams impede the ability of villagers to fish locally. The film will be screened during the Wild and Scenic Environmental Film Festival tour Thursday, October 15, from 7 to 10 p.m. at Davis High School, 315 W. 14th Street in Davis. Other films to be screened include Mine and Home Grown Revolution. The filmmakers of The Last Descent also will be available for questions. Tickets are $10. Visit www.tuleyome.org.
