Movie Screening & Discussion: Eat More Trees
Welcome to the 3rd public Movie Screening & Discussion hosted by the EU Climate Pact Belgium and the Impact Hub in Brussels!
We are excited to invite you to our next event, featuring the documentary Eat More Trees by Arne Focketyn.
About the Movie
Eat More Trees brings together pioneers from around the world, from the Amazon rainforest to Spain, following their quest for a new form of agriculture. Their dream? To fill supermarkets with healthy and diverse products from agroforestry.
Is this a utopian vision, or will they succeed in becoming a catalyst for lasting change? After all, reviving agriculture can save entire villages from neglect. The film intertwines the personal stories of Alfonso, Yanniek, and Louis with broader, universal themes of regeneration, environment, sustainability, and humanity's connection to the earth.
We witness their daily struggles, their triumphs and setbacks, and the growing impact of their work on their communities. Their paths cross when they decide to collaborate and share their knowledge.
A diverse set of speakers with knowledge of the Belgian agroforestry landscape will be invited. We have Eetbos Deinze to bring a solid hands-on explanation of how to do agroforestry, and Tim De Roeck from Solidagro to give a good policy perspective.
