Helene Bukowski from Berlin is the co-author of the documentary film Zehn Wochen Sommer, which won a Grimme Special Cultural Award in 2015. Her debut novel Milchzähne (Milk teeth) which was nominated for various awards has been translated into French and English and a film adaptation is in preparation. The Milk Teeth invites readers to a strange dystopic world, a post apocalypse and articulates serious concerns about the planet. A beautiful story revolves through obvious environmental degradation, climate migration and animal suffering.
Arun Krishnamurthy is an Indian environmental activist and the founder of Environmentalist Foundation of India. He and his organisation has been successful in cleaning at least 169 lakes in the country. He won the prestigious Rolex Award for Enterprise in 2012 for scientific lake restoration in Chennai. He is a strong environment public speaker and a true next generation leader who inspires many volunteers in accomplishing projects that help restore harmony in nature.
