The Cresting International Short Film Competition

Call for circular economy themed, environmental awareness raising videos!

About

The Cresting International Short Film Competition calls for circular economy themed and attention grabbing videos to spread socio-environmental awareness!

Practices such as re-use, material recovery, repair, composting, or buying second-hand have been with us from an early age. Yet, it is only recently that they are commonly referred to as ‘circular’. A circular economy is based on the principles of maximising the use of resources, designing out waste and pollution, and regenerating natural systems. By challenging the ‘throwaway culture’, circular economy is seen as an opportunity to benefit people, planet and the profit: to boost economic competitiveness, create new good quality jobs and shared spaces to socialize, and decrease carbon dependency.   

Do you have a great example of a circular economy initiative in your neighbourhood, local community, city, company or perhaps household? 

 Shoot a short film and inspire others with your story!
