Deadline: June 28, 2024
Are you passionate about climate action and making a positive impact on our planet? The European Climate Pact wants to celebrate your efforts. Applications are open for the European Climate Pact Photo Competition 2024. The European Climate Pact is a movement of people taking steps to build a more sustainable Europe. It’s a place to learn about climate change, develop and implement solutions, and connect with others for an even bigger impact.
The photo competition aims to showcase climate action taking place all around you, in homes, communities and cities. By recognising the efforts being made to fight climate change in our neighbourhoods, they hope to:
- Raise awareness: Let’s shine a light on climate change and its impacts.
- Inspire change: Your actions matter. They want to spark more climate action across Europe. To make an even bigger impact, they want decision-makers and other people to see your actions.
Submit one photo and a caption that answers these questions: What climate action have you taken or noticed around you, in your home, community or city? Why does this make you proud or passionate?
You could capture a climate-friendly part of your daily routine, climate action that someone around you takes, or a climate solution you’ve seen in your city. Get creative! They want to see all kinds of climate action – big or small!
