Visit De Brakke Grond on ADE's Wednesday for a selection of great speakers, panels and workshops for both the ecologically-minded and those who are yet to be convinced of the value and relevance of sustainable practices.
After recent announcements about ADE BeamLab and the ADE Hackathon we continue with another forward thing element of ADE.
ADE Green, the forum par excellence covering every aspect of social responsibility, sustainability, advanced recycling techniques and the whole business of being greener in your life and your event planning, rounds up ten reasons to invest a day of your life in going greener:
- Festivals are an important stage for emerging cultural ideas and innovative developments
- Because you can attent the Dutch movie premiere of ‘How to Let Go of the World and Love All the Things Climate Can’t Change’ by Oscar nominated Josh Fox (GASLAND, US).
- There are also a number of practical workshops you can attend (make sure to register beforehand through this form).
- You’ll learn everything you need to know about the hidden impact of the food you eat: biological vs. locally grown vs. vegan food.
- Because Marianne van der Heijden will be talking about her research into Music as Medicine for the Erasmus Hospital in Rotterdam.
- Because among others Seth Troxler (US), Dave Clarke (UK), Sunnery James (NL), Ryan Marciano (NL), B-Front (NL), Laidback Luke (NL), Tommie Sunshine (US), Shailendra Singh (World’s Biggest Guestlist, IN) are all on the panel of Dance for a Better World.
- Representatives of Tomorrowland, Boom Festival and Shambala will be talking about the steps you can take as a (major) festival to become more sustainable.
- Open-House launches a new program where festivals will be the testing ground for innovations for refugee camps.
- We’ll be revealing the many waste-free steps that we have learned over the last few years through panels and workshops.
Because there are multiple opportunities to network with people who care about the future of the planet!
