Time is running out to book to join me at the Festival of Geography in less than a month’s time. It’s going to be a good day, and will be followed by the Earth Photo Awards. I have a ticket for the ceremony.
Established in 2018, Earth Photo is a world-leading international programme dedicated to engaging with still and moving image makers working across multiple genres sharing the prescient issues affecting the climate and life on our planet.Earth Photo’s main objective is to reveal the narratives behind the pictures, informing, entertaining and engaging audiences while encouraging conversations about our world, its peoples, environments, and the changing climate.
It celebrates innovative visual storytelling that encourages conversations about our world and the challenges we face today.
The photos and videos shortlisted for Earth Photo 2025 bring us stories from across the globe, from the melting sea ice of Greenland to the vanishing oases of Morocco. They also explore the lives of shepherds in the Accursed Mountains of the Balkans, the resilience of communities in La Palma post-volcanic eruption, and the preservation of mangroves in the Gambia.
These stories not only highlight the pressing issues of climate change, such as disappearing habitats, polluted rivers, and climate-induced displacement, but also celebrate human ingenuity, resilience, and the deep connections between people and their environments. Through the camera’s lens, we witness both the fragility and strength of communities facing environmental challenges.
