For those who are passionate about the environment, the Eco Film Festival should be a feast for the senses. Organised by Ecoknights , this annual event, which is in its third year, is an attraction for those who are drawn to award-winning enviromental films, organic and healthy food and beverages, environment-themed workshops and even unplugged performances.
"With the rising concern for the environment, Malaysians today are very keen and interested to learn more about sustainable living. Having said this, we are still lacking behind other countries in putting our knowledge into practice", said Yasmin Rasyid founder and president of non-governmental environmental organisation EcoKnights.
"With all the activities, workshops, films and entertainment line up during the festival, I hope that the festival goers will take home some key environmental messages and act on it immediately," added Yasmin.
The Eco Film Festival will be held at the Faculty of Economics and Administration, University Malaya from 11 to 17 October 2010.
The Star is one of the partners for the Eco Film Festival which is open to the public for free. For more information, log on to www.ecofilmfest.my.
