Blimey, there's a lot of talent out there... In our competition to win Glastonbury tickets, we asked you to create images and videos about climate change, anything from how it makes you feel to what you're doing about it. Video entries had to be less than two minutes long but that was pretty much the only criterion we had.

The entries for our competition to win Glastonbury tickets are in. We asked you to create images and videos about climate change, from how it makes you feel to what you're doing about it. We had around 60 entries - and the quality was fantastic! Apparently there's a lot of creative genius out there...

After a lot of discussion and deliberation here at Greenpeace HQ, we've chosen the winners:

If the testimonies of our two Congolese visitors weren't enough to convince you that there's trouble of the arboreal variety brewing in the Democratic Republic of Congo, try this film for size.

We're still out here in the North Sea talking to trawlermen to convince them to stop fishing cod to extinction, and taking action against those who just won't listen.

For a few days now, we've had no luck locating cod fishing vessels, but that finally changed last night when we came across a Scottish trawler fishing for cod 40 miles east of Unst, the most northerly point of the Shetland Isles. They were reluctant to talk to us, so we decided to wait until morning and pay them a visit.

Calling all YouTube fans. Fellow green movers at down the road at Friends of the Earth have launched a green film competition. They're asking for 60-second odes to the future of the planet, exploring how we look after it with the assumption that there is a day after tomorrow.

Entries need to be in by 20 August 2007 so there's plenty of time to write, film and edit your mini-masterpiece. Even if you aren't inclined to enter, you can be inspired by the entries on the FoE YouTube channel. And while you're there, you can check out our own channel (although we're not offering any prizes as yet).

It's an absolute gift when companies who are being less than kind to the environment have an advertising campaign that, with a few tweaks, can be subverted to expose their dodgy deeds. Such a treat came in the form of the Kleenex 'Let It Out' adverts that have been showing in various countries (here's an example for those who haven't seen it) and the guys in the US and Canada running the Kleercut campaign jumped on it.

Check out all the adrenalin packed action from today’s blockade. Hope you like our new inflatable cam as much as we do – so cool.

Update - July 2007: We've launched a new film about why nuclear power can't stop climate change and how a combination of renewables, efficiency and combined heat and power can: watch The Convenient Solution.

Decentralised energy. It can double the efficiency of our power stations. It's helped Woking Council cut its carbon emissions by 77 per cent. It already provides over 50 per cent of Denmark's electricity supplies.

If you travel on the London underground, you may be seeing a lot more of nuclear waste over the next few weeks than you've been used to. We've joined The Mayor of London Ken Livingstone in launching a poster campaign to tell Londoners about the alternative to the new nuclear power stations Tony Blair wants to build - and inviting them to join the debate on our energy future.
