Green Stories is a transformative initiative that uses storytelling to foster awareness and inspire action towards a sustainable future. Launched in 2018, it has hosted numerous writing competitions aimed at generating creative narratives that envision a world where sustainability thrives. Their projects, such as the No More Fairy Tales anthology, present engaging stories that highlight innovative climate solutions.
Recently, Microbes to the Rescue!, an anthology edited by Dr. Louise Byfield and Dr. Sigrid Kusch-Brandt and published by EBNet.ac.uk, joined the collection of impactful stories in this movement. This book, available as a downloadable e-book under a CC BY-NC 4.0 DEED license, encourages readers to share and adapt its content for non-commercial purposes. With stories of microbial innovations and green solutions, this anthology complements Green Stories' mission, expanding readers' understanding of sustainability in unexpected ways.
Through competitions and collaborations with organizations like BAFTA, Green Stories encourages writers to explore green themes and solutions, contributing to a cultural shift towards environmental consciousness. Their efforts have reached thousands, including climate conference delegates, demonstrating the power of storytelling in promoting sustainable change.
Get Involved! Writers of all levels are encouraged to join upcoming competitions, share their stories, and become part of a community passionate about sustainability. Stay updated on opportunities and events by signing up for their mailing list or following them on social media.
