MoEF&CC as part of its environmental and wildlife awareness campaign have identified four themes that will be in focus during the years 2015 and 2016, which includes afforestation, waste to wealth, reduce pollution and reduce plastic and will be using films to promote awareness on these issues. The films will be provided by CMS VATAVARAN, which now has a rich repository of environment and wildlife documentaries, animation and short films.
The Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change has been a Principal Partner of CMS VATAVARAN since its inception in 2002. And this is for the first time that the Ministry will be hosting film screenings at its premises for its officials. The film screenings will be held every Friday from 5:30 pm at the MoEF&CC’s state of the art green building-Indira Paryavaran Bhawan. The film screening is free and open to all.
