The mission of Citizens for Sustainable Marina (C4SM) is to be an organization that educates and empowers the people of Marina to build a satisfying, sustainable, and resilient community that meets the challenges of Peak Oil and Climate Change.
Meet the filmmaker: Sasha Reuther
Sustainable Marina is delighted to be again co-sponsoring with the California Faculty Association a Reel Work May Day Labor Film Festival screening this year.
BROTHERS ON THE LINE is about the Reuther brothers organizing auto workers. A discussion of how US auto impacts our economy and ecology follows the showing.
Lives and legacy of the three Reuther brothers—Walter, Roy and Victor—militant auto workers turned union and civil rights champions. They organized successful sit-down strikes—factory occupations—in the 1930s. They helped transform the labor movement into a formidable force for equality and pioneered tactics adopted by today’s Occupy movement. Narrated by Martin Sheen.
7 pm Monday April 30 at the University Center Ballroom, Bldg. 29, Sixth Avenue at B St.
If you would like to join a gathering of folks who will share dinner with Sasha at the Otter Bay restaurant (it's also in the UC) on campus before the screening please email. It's a really nice spot with a great view, and guaranteed good company.

Marina is one of 8 Monterey County groups founded under the auspices of Citizens for Sustainable Monterey County. The first organizing meeting of C4SM was held on April 20, 2009. We have about 160 members and continue to grow. Our steering committee meets monthly to set goals and plan our public programs. We were selected to be the the lead planning group for Locke-Paddon Park Earth Day 2010 by the Monterey Peninsula Regional Park District.
C4SM presents interactive educational programs such as films, panels, presentations, and forums on sustainability issues. The programs are open to the public, and admission is free. See the Calendar page for programs.
We are building community gardens, we encourage green building practices and new urbanism, waste reduction, water conservation, household and business energy reduction, and promote car pooling, pedestrian-friendly urban design, city bike paths and urban parks, and alternate transportation. We supported the signing and implementation of the Urban Environmental Accords and the US Mayors Climate Protection Agreement, and all sustainability issues.
