CRLC presents BEYOND ZERO

Join the Columbus Region Logistics Council (CRLC) for a screening of Beyond Zero, a groundbreaking documentary that reimagines capitalism as a force for good. While many films highlight the challenges of climate change and inequality, Beyond Zero goes further—exploring bold, solution-driven approaches that align profit with people and the planet.

The film chronicles the remarkable journey of Interface, a $1 billion global carpet company, as it transformed from an environmental offender into a sustainability trailblazer. This powerful story has captivated audiences worldwide, earning accolades such as the Audience Choice Award at the Denver Film Festival and Best Documentary at the Boston Film Festival.

Following the screening, engage in an illuminating panel discussion including the film’s director and sustainability thought leaders. Together, we’ll explore how reimagined capitalism can drive scalable positive change and what it means for businesses, communities, and the future of our planet.
