[Filmfestivalresearch] Carbon Footprint at the San Sebastian IFF

[Ger Zielinski]

Dear Festivalists,

The San Sebastian IFF recently announced its analysis and path towards a
greener festival.

A few of us are studying the environmental impact of film festivals, so
please share any similar initiatives on the part of festivals elsewhere.
That would be much appreciated.

All the best,

*The name of the university is currently under review by the Standing
Strong (Mash Koh Wee Kah Pooh Win) Task Force. We respect the conversations
taking place within our community about the name of the university and the
history it represents to our Indigenous community members.

We acknowledge that Toronto is in the 'Dish With One Spoon Territory’. The
Dish With One Spoon is a treaty between the Anishinaabe, Mississaugas and
Haudenosaunee that bound them to share the territory and protect the land.
Subsequent Indigenous Nations and peoples, Europeans and all newcomers have
been invited into this treaty in the spirit of peace, friendship and
respect.
