The environment week 2009Affiche

Protect today tomorrow’s life

One week dedicated to the growing awareness: a selection of short and full-length films around the question of the sustainable development and the environment in Cambodia and everywhere else.
One week carried by different partners who have the same objective to explain to the Cambodian population the importance of the environmental protection and to encourage it to adopt daily behavior favorable to the sustainable development.
The edition of the week of the environment 2009 will take place from 1st till 7th June in various places of Phnom Penh: the gardens of Hun Sen, the ITC, the URA, the CCF as well as the Wat Phnom and the Wat Bothum.

The major event: the release of the film of Yann Arthus-Bertrand, HOME


More than a film, HOME will be a world event: for the first time in the history, this full-length film will indeed be shown at the same time in more than 50 countries.
It is the symbolic date of June 5th, 2009, the world day of the environment which was chosen for this simultaneous broadcasting.
The objective of Yann Arthus-Bertrand so is to affect the most possible people, and to convince us that we have a responsibility towards the Earth.

Synopsis

In some decades, the mankind broke a balance of about 4 billion evolutions of the Earth and puts his future in danger. The price to be paid is heavy, but it is too late to be pessimistic: there is hardly 10 years left at the Humanity to become aware of its disproportionate exploitation of the wealth of the Earth and change its mode of consumption.
By offering us the new images of more than 50 countries seen by the sky, by making us share his delight as much as his anxiety, Yann Arthus-Bertrand puts, with this film, the foundations of the building which we have to, all together, reconstruct.
