Former Hungarian President János Áder said that, besides problems, ways to reverse unfavorable ecological changes should also be addressed.
In the latest episode of his Blue Planet environmental podcast, he discussed the 10th Planet Lens International Photo and Film Festival on Nature Conservation and Sustainability, to be held in Veszprem, in central Hungary, between May 15-18.
His guest, Ákos Gózon, the chairman of the festival’s jury, said that entries have been made from 45 countries and will be shown in four categories. Those include full-length classic nature and environmental films, animations, short films and in a separate category, titles presenting the treasures of the Carpathian Basin.
Gózon noted that the festival will also feature issues further away from home, such as an Indonesian film showing a mother and her child discussing the future or another presenting changes in the Swedish landscape as seen through the eyes of a Hungarian.
The main theme of the festival is biodiversity, said Gózon.
