Zeke Murphy,  of Sustainable.co.za, comments: “I believe that a Film Festival such as the Cape Town Eco Film festival is critical in the continued effort to protect our planet for our children. Sustainable.co.za is committed to raising awareness regarding issues with our environment, climate change and protecting our wild life, and we feel that our involvement in the film festival is a wonderful means to raising these issues within the South African community.”
