“We are excited to share the beautiful art for the 2013 Wild & Scenic Film Festival. Many thanks to our talented graphic designer, and founding director of the Wild & Scenic Film Festival, Kathy Dotson! ” SYRCL announced this morning. ”Our theme for the 2013 festival, is ‘A Climate of Change,’ and we think this art says volumes about the positive changes we envision for our future on this planet.
“Through preservation of wild places, utilization of efficient and creative technologies that result in reduced fossil fuel consumption, governance and business decisions that benefit all species, simpler and more localized living, and taking time to enjoy each other and the incredible places we live, we believe that it is possible to create a more just and sustainable future.
“In fact, we must, and that is why we chose this theme and why we continue to host the Wild & Scenic Film Festival each year – to educate and inspire our community to create a climate of change!”
This poster art is debuting this week on the back cover of our magazine, with distribution in Reno, Sacramento, Tahoe/Truckee, the Foothills, Rocklin/Roseville/Lincoln/Folsom, Marysville, Yuba City, Chico and other places. The Wild & Scenic Film Festival is an “economic driver” to our community in early January, normally a quiet time.

Beautiful poster.
Wake up you sheep… It’s UN Agenda 21!
Here’s the proof… spin in a circle 6 times, stare at the SYRCL poster upside down with your eyes crossed and you will see the hidden message in the poster.
Plus the trees are green and they used the word “change”… which as thinking people know is a UN Agenda 21 code word.
It’s just like a Bev Doolittle painting:

Very handsome Craftsman-Bungalow inspired, silk screen, flat work, poster art.
Ski resorts used such imagery a lot in the 30′s/40’3 era.
Works great on vintage inspired beer labels as well.
But the train careening around the mountain bends is scary.
Not such a green looking message as SYRCL might wish to promote?
Just my opinion, I could be way off.
Hmmm Judith, I guess I would ask “green” compared to what?
The reality is that train travel per passenger is significantly more environmentally friendly than auto traffic, which is the best alternative that we have out there today. Per person greenhouse gas emissions for an auto trip from the Bay area to and from Tahoe for example is 175 lbs. of CO2 equivalent. The numbers if one were to take rail would be less than half as much under current ridership numbers. And unlike auto travel, if the number of passengers goes up on rail the per person GHGE goes down.
Linking passenger rail to Tahoe on a regular basis (4 times per day from Reno and San Francisco) has long been a dream of Tahoe region transit advocates, because it would take about 4000 cars per day off of I-80, reducing maintenance cost, slowing lane expansion costs, and increasing productivity for people making the trip.
The path for the train is already established, it was built 100 years ago; all that would be necessary would be some improvements of sidings, grades and curves.
Plus, this investment would increase efficiency of the major cross country link, the California Zephyr line from the Bay area to Chicago, cutting about 3 hours off the first portion of the cross country trip, and paving the way for HSR from Nevada to Chicago (we will probably never see true HSR over the Sierra in our lifetimes). And unlike the proposed train from Colfax to Nevada City, the population base will likely be there 30 years from now to support such an investment. The trans-continental route done at high speed could be a 12 hour trip–about what it takes me now to go to the airport, get through security, board a plane, transfer because there are almost no through flights anymore, get to Chicago and get on the EL.
Not only do I like the poster…..I like the idea….
Judith,
I think that’s a portrayal of Jerry’s bullet train going off the rails. It’s surely a bummer, for it appears that advanced transportation systems are only built and enjoyed in countries with advance political systems, not those that were invented when steam engines were king.
