BBSR-based cultural outfit Bakul Foundation would host a two-day environmental film festival in association with Toxic Links, an NGO, at the IDCOL Auditorium here from Saturday. Briefing newsmen here, foundation director S Mohapatra said that 18 films on major environmental issues divided into three categories - earth, survival and water would be screened.
Films on impact of climate change on earth and its effect on Orissa, development versus wildlife conservation, water bottling industry, traditional water harvesting techniques and politics behind building of dams would be screened.
Some films deal with exploitation of water sources for corporate interests, threats to human survival from pesticides, GM crops and uranium waste, Mohapatra said.
