\ud83c\uddea\ud83c\uddf8 Spain – A 16-day heatwave has exacerbated the fires that have ravaged Spain, making this summer one of the worst on record.<\/p>\n\n

This is the toll of the flames in recent weeks, which have destroyed almost 400,000 hectares. Greenpeace Spain, with the help of photographer Pedro Armestre, has documented the extent of the destruction in the Communities of Galicia and Castile and Le\u00f3n from the air, even reaching areas that have not been previously documented.<\/p>\n\n

\ud83c\uddf0\ud83c\uddf7 South Korea – Greenpeace Seoul hosted the second edition of the pop-up campaign ‘WEarth: The Voice of Earth’ at Hyundai Department Store in Bucheon. Unlike the first event in June, which took place in central Seoul, this popup targeted department store visitors and families, creating an approachable way for new audiences to connect with Greenpeace. Participants joined activities such as the ‘Yeolbat-gom’ (angry polar bear) photo zone, recording voices for the Earth, making eco-friendly moss planters with recycled coffee grounds, and a children\u2019s climate talk by science communicator Dr. Jungmo Lee.<\/p>\n\n

Greenpeace has been a pioneer of photo activism for more than 50 years, and remains committed to bearing witness and exposing environmental injustice through the images we capture.<\/p>\n\n
