	Talk About Stars by CIWEM’s Environmental Photographer of the Year 2009 Bolucevschi Vitali Nicolai, from Moldova.

The Environmental Photographer of the Year shares images of environmental and social issues with international audiences, enhancing our understanding of the causes, consequences and solutions to climate change.

The competition encourages images of places and people that are benefitting from a changing climate, or vulnerable ecosystems and communities that are struggling with the effects. Images may examine the relationship between economic development, environmental degradation and social inequity, celebrate innovations helping us achieve environmental improvements, examine lifestyles, cultural traditions, spiritual activities and racial prejudices or celebrate the incredible variety and beauty that exists within our natural environment. They serve to remind us what we need to protect.

All winning and highly commended entries are displayed at the international Environmental Photographer of the Year exhibition, creating a legacy of informed individuals working to protect our environment.
