Have you entered the Standard Chartered Weather Photographer of the Year competition?
THE Standard Chartered Weather Photographer of the Year Competition 2024 has just been launched and is now seeking to find and showcase the world’s most striking weather and climate photography.
Now in its ninth year, the competition is run by the UK’s Royal Meteorological Society and provides an international platform to raise awareness of environmental issues putting our planet at risk - including heatwaves, cyclones, and extreme flooding - while depicting the awe-inspiring beauty and power of our weather. The competition is open for entries from:- 15 April to 18 June 2024 and is free to enter for professional and amateur photographers of all ages. New for 2024:-
The diversity of the prize encourages people of all ages and abilities to participate in the competition and photograph natural and extreme weather, highlighting our varied global climate. ITV Weather is welcomed as a valued media partner of the competition again this year, along with The Week Junior Science+Nature, which continues its support of the youth category. Shortlisted entries from the main and smartphone categories will be announced in mid-September. The public will then have the chance to vote for their favourite, and all the winners will be announced on:- 30 October 2024. Prof Liz Bentley, Chief Executive of the Royal Meteorological Society, said:- "The Royal Meteorological Society is delighted to have the support of Standard Chartered’s commitment to raising global awareness about climate change and its impact. We hope that the new Climate Award will highlight the effects that global warming is having on weather patterns around the world, and the urgent need for swift action. The award will raise the profile of our photographers’ ability to tell powerful stories through images; the new judges this year come from backgrounds in photojournalism and picture editing, which will help us to pull out these strengths." Marisa Drew, Chief Sustainability Officer at Standard Chartered, said:- "!Standard Chartered is proud to support the Weather Photographer competition for a second year, showcasing natural weather events and the impacts of our changing climate. In 2024, we’re pleased to introduce a new award to recognise powerful depictions of climate change – including intensifying extreme weather and climate-related natural hazards such as heatwaves, floods, cyclones, and wildfires – to bring greater awareness to the importance of climate change mitigation and adaptation." Embedding sustainability across its business is a strategic priority for Standard Chartered. The bank is committed to reaching net zero carbon in its own operations by 2025 and in financing by 2050, and seeks to support an inclusive transition that brings with it the opportunity for growth and prosperity.
