EMFF JOINS 1% GROUP
20 September 2007
Edinburgh Mountain Film Festival has become the 700th member of the
visionary environmental group, 'One Percent For The Planet'.
Perhaps surprisingly, the EMFF is just the 2nd Scottish member of this
group.
One
Percent for the Planet is an international alliance of companies
that recognize the true cost of doing business and donate 1% of their
sales to environmental organizations worldwide. These donations are
a bold statement of members' committment to the environment.
The charity was founded by the well-known mountaineer, Yvon Chouinard,
who also founded outdoor clothing company, Patagonia.
As well as joining the group, the EMFF is upping its own environmental
credentials by printing its programmes on recycled paper, and providing
better facilities for recycling at the event itself.

Percent for the Planet, click here to visit its website.
