Singer Elton John poses for photographers for the film ‘Rocketman’ at the 72nd international film festival, Cannes.
“There is, without a doubt, a huge amount that needs to be done by the festival organisers to make it more environmentally friendly,” said Cyril Dion, a filmmaker and climate activist. “During the festival, the population triples, and all of these people have to travel,” said ADEN head Genevieve Huchet.
And that’s without mentioning the vast numbers of glossy magazines printed out every day for the first week or so of the festival, with daily copies issued by The Hollywood Reporter, Screen, Variety and Le Film Francais among others.In 2015, the festival generated an extra 1,900 tonnes of rubbish for the city of Cannes, ADEM says, pointing to the last available figures.
But more than anything, it is the constant rumble of air traffic that most bothers the residents of Cannes, which begins in earnest with the festival and continues on into the summer. Cannes Mayor David Lisnard insists that the town does what it can to ease the environmental impact of the cinema showcase.
