Graeme Green's groundbreaking new project, "The New Big 5," aims to revolutionize wildlife photography and inspire a global movement to protect endangered species. The initiative, which began with a simple yet profound question: "What if we used our cameras instead of guns?" has evolved into a powerful platform showcasing the beauty and fragility of the world's most iconic animals.
The book features stunning images from 144 renowned photographers from around the globe, including Ami Vitale, Steve McCurry, and Paul Nicklen. These photographs are not only breathtakingly beautiful but also convey a sense of urgency and purpose. The "New Big 5" – elephant, polar bear, lion, gorilla, and tiger – have been selected for their critical status as ambassadors for the planet's declining biodiversity.
Through stunning images and thought-provoking essays, Green's project not only highlights the majesty of these animals but also sheds light on the pressing issues threatening their survival. Habitat loss, poaching, pollution, and climate change are just a few of the pressing concerns that this book tackles head-on.
Graeme Green's vision for "The New Big 5" is to inspire a global movement to protect endangered species and promote sustainable living. By showcasing the beauty of nature and the devastating impact of human activities on the environment, Green hopes to galvanize people into action.
As conservationist Jane Goodall notes in her foreword, "We have a window of time during which we can start to heal some of the harm we have inflicted on the natural world." With "The New Big 5," Graeme Green is offering us that window, urging us to take immediate and collective action to protect our planet's precious wildlife.
"The New Big 5: A Global Photography Project For Endangered Wildlife" is more than just a book – it's a call to arms. It's a reminder of the beauty and fragility of life on Earth and an invitation to join forces in protecting our planet's most iconic animals.

gotta give props to Graeme Green for using his camera as a tool instead of a gun, you know? it's time we start seeing wildlife through different eyes – not just as objects to exploit or kill. the "new big 5" initiative is a game-changer, and I'm hyped to see more photographers and conservationists coming together to spread awareness 
This project sounds amazing! I love how Graeme Green has turned a simple question into something so powerful. The fact that 144 photographers from all over the world are contributing their work is just incredible 
. It's so easy to get caught up in feeling helpless when it comes to conservation, but this project shows us that even one person can make a difference (or, like, hundreds of people 
. And I love how Jane Goodall's foreword emphasizes the importance of taking action now. We do have that window of time to make a change, so let's use it! 
, we need people to care about the planet & its creatures more, it's not just about us humans, it's about saving the future for the animals too 
, i love how graeme green is using photography as a tool to inspire change, it's a beautiful thing 
. With all the amazing photos from top shooters like Ami Vitale and Steve McCurry, you can't deny the impact of "The New Big 5". But let's be real, we've seen plenty of wildlife photography projects come and go – what sets this one apart? Is it just a bunch of pretty pictures or is there something more to it?
. Still, props to Graeme Green for trying and who knows, maybe this project will inspire some people to take action 
I think its so cool that Graeme Green turned his photography passion into something bigger than himself. I mean, who wouldn't want to travel the world taking pics of majestic animals 
. We need to acknowledge the devastating impact of our actions on the planet and its inhabitants. It's time to shift from exploiting nature to preserving it. I hope this project inspires people to make a difference, but we also need to hold ourselves accountable for our individual roles in harming the environment. Let's not just take pictures, let's take action 
like who would have thought that photography could be such a powerful tool for conservation? Graeme Green's idea of using cameras instead of guns is genius 
and the images in the book are literally breathtaking. i love how it highlights the beauty of nature but also the urgent need to protect our planet. i'm definitely going to buy this book and share it with my friends 
gotta see some proof that this project is actually making a difference 
haven't seen any concrete steps or funding info on their website, seems like a cool idea but where's the substance? 
, but it's a bit too easy to click the shutter and call it a day when there are actual issues to tackle. I mean, where's the context? What about the people living in those habitats who are being displaced by conservation efforts? It feels like we're just scratching the surface here 
.
. Just hope we're not just treating symptoms instead of addressing the root causes 
using wildlife photography as a way to fight conservation is so overdue. the images are not only stunning but also show us the harsh reality of what we're doing to our planet. it's about time someone shines a light on these issues and inspires people to take action
