WASHINGTON, D.C.- Aspiring video producers and photographers get ready! Earth Day will be here on April 22. In anticipation and celebration, the Environmental Protection Agency has launched two projects that will allow members of the public to share how they protect and enjoy the environment.
The EPA is asking filmmakers and photographers around the world to submit their own videos and photos documenting what steps they take to protect the water they drink, the air they breathe, and the overall environmental health of their communities.
EPA officials will select videos and photos to feature on their website from now through the end of April. Participants can submit their video entries to the agency’s Earth Day Video Project group on You Tube. Photo entries should be submitted to the Earth Day Photo project through Flickr.com.
Categories in the video project are:
- Reducing your carbon footprint
- Conserving and protecting water
- Protecting the environment
- Reduce, reuse, recycle
Categories in the photo project are:
- People and the environment
- The beauty of nature
- Wildlife
Additional information about participating in the projects can be found at Earth Day Video Project and Earth Day Photo Project.
