For Campaigners

A NEW VISUAL LANGUAGE FOR CLIMATE ACTION

Check out About Climate Visuals - Climate Outreach which I discovered this week. If you are a campaigner or need climate images that help, have a look. Images are free to use with attribution under creative commons.

They say  "All too often, the climate change imagery the world sees is ineffective at driving change – it may be aesthetically pleasing and illustrative but not salient or emotionally impactful.

Our Climate Visuals evidence base and experience proves that imagery needs to embody people-centred narratives and positive solutions, and must resonate with the identity and values of the viewer – not just environmentalists. Only then can we truly drive engagement and promote positive action against climate change."
