Cowsp imageAs part of EarthFlim Festival 2016 (http://earthfestsingapore.com/), many environment groups screened the ground- breaking documentary “Cowspiracy” to their members and associates in Apr.

Hailed by acclaimed director, Darren Aronofsky, as “a documentary that will rock and inspire the environmental movement”, Cowspiracy explores the impact of animal agriculture on the environment, and investigates the policies of environmental organizations such as Greenpeace, Sierra Club and Rainforest Action Network on this issue.

 

Earth Society was invited to attend 2 screening events to act as panellist to assist in the Discussions after the documentary screening.

After watching the documentary, Grace Windheim and Adinda Soerono from the Focus on food Club facilitated a discussion on the documentary. The audience asked many questions on animal agriculture, shifting consumer habits, adopting veggie days etc. We had a lively and fruitful discussion followed by a veggie dinner provided by the school.

We are glad that various environment groups are taking the initiative to screen the documentary and reach out to their communities to promote environmental awareness and a sustainable way of living. We hope to see more of such Eco-friendly initiatives in the future to encourage everyone to join in to protect the environment.
