European Climate Pact Photo Competition 2024

Are you passionate about climate action and making a positive impact on our planet? They want to celebrate your efforts! 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. It will run until Friday 28 June 2024, 12:00 PM CEST. By recognising the efforts being made to fight climate change in our neighbourhoods, we hope to:

• Raise awareness: Let’s shine a light on climate change and its impacts.
• Inspire change: Your actions matter. We want to spark more climate action across Europe. To make an even bigger impact, we 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! We want to see all kinds of climate action – big or small!
