Scarred Lands & Wounded LivesIn 2008, the Days released the documentary Scarred Lands & Wounded Lives. The film uses on-site and archival footage and examines how war and its preparations can cause detrimental change to the environment and natural resources. This includes expert analysis on various wars throughout history and involves several examples of how the creating of munitions for example can cause environmental pollution. Critical reviews for the film have been positive, as reviewers felt that while the documentary's topic might be depressing for some that viewers would "come away knowing a whole lot more than [they] ever wanted to about war's impact on the environment-and that's just one of the reasons [that they] should watch it."[5][6] The film was also shown in 2010 at the FILManthropy festival "Open Your Eyes Program." The film aired at 9:00am on October 3 of the festival and was in association with Fund for Sustainable Tomorrows.[7] Remarkable Survivors: Insights into Successful Aging among Women by Alice T. DayIn a review by Elizabeth A. Kutza, the reviewer says the book's "strength comes from the longitudinal nature of its data as well as in its blending of qualitative and quantitative approach to issues." The review discusses how Alice used information gathered from 1000 older women in order to identify a pattern between these women. Personal interviews were conducted with 20 of the women used to gather the research findings and all of it was used to make the final product.[8] Awards and nominations
