About the film:
In Southeast Asia, an unusual collaboration between Copenhagen Zoo and the partially Danish-owned United Plantations (UP) is underway to create a more sustainable production of palm oil. Solutions are sought in nature itself. Instead of using chemical pesticides against pests, leopard cats, black cobras, and owls are deployed to K*ll rats. In laboratories, ‘beneficial’ insects are cultivated to control outbreaks of harmful insects. Additionally, corridors of rainforest are planted between the palms, providing wild animals with space to live and move from one place to another. However, the question remains: Is there a sustainable balance between economy and ecology?

Pizza will be provided including Gluten Friendly/Vegan options. A water station will also be available. Please help us reduce waste by bringing your own water bottle.
