The People's Picture: From Love to Lobby

In 2025, The Climate Coalition worked with The People’s Picture to create a powerful public artwork made from thousands of images submitted by people across the UK. Together, we’re telling a story of love for people, places and planet - and calling on political leaders to protect them.

A tapestry of care and connection

Throughout the year, people from all walks of life have shared photos of the places they love — from coastlines and community gardens to sports grounds, parks and streets. The final artwork brings these together in a giant mosaic, showing just how many of us care, and how deeply.

This is more than just a beautiful piece of art. It’s a visual mandate - making public support for climate and nature action impossible to ignore.

Bringing our message to decision makers

The mosaic has been growing since Show the Love in February, through Great Big Green Week in June, and now forms part of the Act Now, Change Forever mass lobby in Westminster.

We’re inviting MPs to take notice of the spaces and places people want to protect - and to hear their call to Act Now and Change Forever. 

A tapestry of care and connection

This is just the beginning 

This mosaic is part of a longer journey - connecting creative storytelling, grassroots action, and political pressure into a strong movement for change. Together, we are showing that climate and nature action is grounded in the things people care about most.

From showing the love to lobbying our MPs - we are building a healthier, fairer, safer future for all.
