Some have spent months in the depths of the Amazon to make sure Indigenous voices reach the mainstream. They\u2019ve gripped their cameras on long boat rides to document a disaster that needs to make headlines. And others have gone to the bottom of a coal mine, combatted polar temperatures, or swam with sharks to capture photos that will help protect our planet.<\/p>\n
With a camera in one hand and an eagle eye on the world, documenting this pale blue dot we call home is no easy task.

Take a look at some of this unmissable environmental photography, captured by accomplished women from around the globe.<\/p>\n
