Stunning Environmental Photography Winners Spotlight Conservation Efforts and Endangered Species
Affiliate Disclosure
Hey fellow impactful ninja ?
You may have noticed that Impactful Ninja is all about providing helpful information to make a positive impact on the world and society. And that we love to link back to where we found all the information for each of our posts.
Most of these links are informational-based for you to check out their primary sources with one click.
But some of these links are so-called "affiliate links" to products that we recommend.
Why do we add these product links?
First and foremost, because we believe that they add value to you. For example, when we wrote a post about the environmental impact of long showers, we came across an EPA recommendation to use WaterSense showerheads. So we linked to where you can find them. Or, for many of our posts, we also link to our favorite books on that topic so that you can get a much more holistic overview than one single blog post could provide.
And when there is an affiliate program for these products, we sign up for it. For example, as Amazon Associates, we earn from qualifying purchases.
What do these affiliate links mean for you?
First, and most importantly, we still only recommend products that we believe add value for you.
When you buy something through one of our affiliate links, we may earn a small commission - but at no additional costs to you.
And when you buy something through a link that is not an affiliate link, we won’t receive any commission but we’ll still be happy to have helped you.
What do these affiliate links mean for us?
When we find products that we believe add value to you and the seller has an affiliate program, we sign up for it.
When you buy something through one of our affiliate links, we may earn a small commission (at no extra costs to you).
And at this point in time, all money is reinvested in sharing the most helpful content with you. This includes all operating costs for running this site and the content creation itself.
What does this mean for me personally?
You may have noticed by the way Impactful Ninja is operated that money is not the driving factor behind it. It is a passion project of mine and I love to share helpful information with you to make a positive impact on the world and society. However, it's a project in that I invest a lot of time and also quite some money.
Eventually, my dream is to one day turn this passion project into my full-time job and provide even more helpful information. But that's still a long time to go.

📈 One key stat: The world’s tiger population has declined by 95% over the last hundred years due to deforestation and poaching, leaving fewer than 400 Sumatran tigers in the wild.
💬 One key quote: “All seagrass beds across the Ocean, and large amounts of sealife rely on the riches of infauna to thrive. The unsung activity of these ever hidden worms has massive consequences at a global scale.”

1️⃣ The big picture: The Environmental Photography Award has announced its 2025 winners, featuring breathtaking images that capture both the beauty and vulnerability of our natural world. Winning photographs range from seadragons and burrowing worms to endangered tigers and rescued tapirs.

Beyond their artistic merit, these images serve as powerful visual documentation of conservation challenges and success stories happening around the globe.
2️⃣ Why is this good news: These award-winning photographs raise vital awareness about conservation efforts taking place worldwide. Images like the rescued tapir receiving treatment and baby turtles in recovery programs showcase the dedication of individuals working to protect endangered species. The competition gives voice to wildlife that often goes unseen, from burrowing worms maintaining ocean ecosystems to endangered forest creatures. By celebrating both nature’s beauty and confronting environmental challenges, these powerful visual stories inspire action and connect viewers emotionally to conservation causes they might otherwise never see.
3️⃣ What’s next: The photographs will continue to be exhibited and shared globally to raise awareness about environmental conservation. Conservation projects featured in the images, like the giant armadillo research and sea turtle recovery programs, will carry on their vital work. Viewers can support these causes by learning more about the species and habitats highlighted in the award-winning images.
