Cool Pics
Posted on Friday, November 21st, 2008
As a pro-Googler, photography lover and greenie, I’m always searching for people and companies that produce a powerful product by combining environmentalism and art. I recently discovered GHG Photos, a stock photography agency that tells a human environmental story through its images.
The agency is a coalition of science, environmental, nature, and documentary photographers who have spent the last several years focused on the emissions, effects and mitigation attempts of those Greenhouse Gas emissions – GHG.
The photographers at GHG, which include Gary Braasch, Steve Kazlowski and Joshua Wolfe, are also available for talks and corporate assignments.
At a time in history when going green has taken a backseat to saving green under mattresses, when journalism jobs are being slashed left and right, I commend these photographers for pursuing the story telling.
And just as photographer William Henry Jackson’s early photographs influenced Congress’ decision to designate Yellowstone the first national park, the GHG photographers hope to inform the climate change debate by helping people see and understand how we are affecting the planet.
