First Prize
Edward, Bristol, age 10
I think this photograph reflects low carbon living because the sign is solely powered using the natural energy of the sun. It is a warning sign reminding drivers who are recklessly using fossil fuels to slow down. The sign is clear that solar energy can save lives and the future of our world. |
First Prize

Low carbon living via this beautiful windfarm. Mother nature supplies the clean energy (wind) and we convert it to power we can use with wind turbines. I think these structures are beautiful, both to look at and to know that they are producing clean energy.

First Prize
Perry, Welwyn Garden City, age 18
This photo to me represents freedom. The girl (my sister) in this photo is using I think a creative way of saving the environment. She is floating away with balloons instead of using transport. The way in which I have reflected low carbon living in this photo is to show the girl how children should be living. We should be out there in the country side, taking walks, flying kites and playing hide and seek. Not, sitting indoors, wasting electricity and water.We should be discovering the world around us, the location of this photograph is five minutes from my house. I discovered this because I decided that I needed to change to lower my carbon footprint. The story behind this photo is just a girl wanting her childhood freedom back. She is upset by how technology has raised us and not our parents, she is running away from the way we are living and flying away to discover how people should be living. She flys away to find out how she can change the world.

Second prize
Eleanor, Higher Disley, age 14
I feel my picture reflects low carbon living as a necessity because if we don't change our lifestyles to a more carbon conscious way of living the natural world around us will be deeply disabled as a consequence. The winter moth in the image represents the sacrifices animals are making for our use of electricity and the are "Dying For Light"

Callum, Oxford, age 17
This is one of my favorite pieces as the sun throws the turbine into shadow, and really highlights the striking architecture that wind turbines are.

Joint Second prize
Okan, Wantage, age 11
This picture means low carbon living to me because I can read my book knowing that I'm using solar energy to power my solar lamp

Joint Third Prize
Helen, Edinburgh, age 14
Give Way to Machinery This photo reflects the facts that low carbon living is pushed aside as it must "give way" to those wrecking our precious environment.

Third Prize
Gemma, Australia, age 18
This photo makes me think of earth because its simple, that a bee works its way through life blissfully only dying when it stings another. I think if we all lived like bee's there would be no global warming, no poverty, no destruction of earth. |
Third Prize
Jordan, Bury, age 11
This photograph represents recycling and its affects on the world - the ripe apple showing a fruitful world and the rotten one showing the death of the world.

Joint Third Prize
Jenny, Royston, age 14
My picture, which was taken on my allotment, shows a bee collecting pollen from an artichoke flower. The allotment gives us food within walking distance, and we have flower beds with the vegetables to encourage the insects and wildlife for sustainable living |
