I'm interest to see how acclaimed enviromental photographer James Balog in action and how he take all the risk and also doing the job as a photographer for the National Geographic to capture all disappearing landscape of the Arctic, because of Earth's climate change the whole ice land melted in just minutes, all of it will be gone and the memory of the landscape will be stored only in a small memory card of his camera. The fest is about climate change, renewable energy and sustainability, and films shown will address some solution on how we can safeguard our resources by using science and tech.
