"We have detained one man who was searched for by police," the state police spokesman said. The march ended in Pisarky on the outskirts of Brno where the festival continues with DJs'performances. "Though the problem of climate change is one of the major topics in the world, the interest in it is still marginal in the Czech Republic," Katarina Potfajova, one of the festival organisers, told journalists. The organisers would like to present various views of global warming. The festival programme offers concerts, DJs'productions as well as NGOs's information and discussion stands. Other events connected with ProtestFest, such as screenings of environmental films, will take place next week.
