I hope this email brings you joy

 

Earlier this month, we celebrated Nature Photography Day. Photography plays such an important role in driving environmental activism and bearing witness to the changing world, and we’ve captured many moving and awe-inspiring moments within Greenpeace. So in honor, I invite you to stop for a moment, breathe, and appreciate the life around you. I’ve compiled a small selection of iconic Greenpeace images from around the world that I hope will bring some joy and inspiration into your life — if even for a moment. Enjoy!

These talented photographers are turning their shots into sparks that push the environmental movement forward – from climate change to conservation to deforestation and more. And together, we’re urgently fighting to protect priceless ecosystems and wildlife as part of our larger resistance movement to unravel the ball of injustice, hate, and corporate profiteering that is rolling across our planet right now. I hope these photos brought a little bit of light to your day. Thank you for choosing to stand with us in the fight for a just, green, and peaceful future.
