Topics throughout the summit will encompass how media and music address climate change, as well as the influence of gaming on environmental themes. Noteworthy sessions will include discussions on how the long-running series ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ has tackled climate issues over its two decades on air and how movements related to sustainability can be authentically represented on screen. A workshop dedicated to sustainable production practices will also be conducting throughout the event, providing insights on integrating eco-friendly methods into creative processes without compromising artistic expression.
