LWEC Photo Competition - Event Date: 01 Jan 2014 - 30 Apr 2014

Living With Environmental Change Health Climate Change Photo Competition.

Could your photographic prowess be put in service of the UK’s need to protect vulnerable people from climate impacts?

LWEC needs help to powerfully illustrate scientific information it produces for government, agencies and services across the UK.

The Health Climate Change Impacts Report Card needs to be as attractive as the Biodiversity Card (see http://www.lwec.org.uk/resources/report-cards.) but very few images exist to bring the card to life. LWEC is therefore running a photographic competition to generate a pool of images to help publicly funded scientists put across vital information for people and services in the Health Sector.

1. Disease transmitted by vectors (mosquitoes, ticks)

2. Warmer winters

3. Warmer summers

4. Flooding

5. Environmental quality/pollution (contamination of soil, water)

6. Food safety

7. Outdoor air quality

8. Impacts on health and social systems

9. Social and health inequalities

10. Long term impacts on human populations (ecosystem services, food production, sea level rise etc.)
