In the Natural History Museum's Environment Award judges observed that "the large number of entries in this newly created category clearly reflects the growing importance of environmental issues in our world and in the media,where the topic has graduated from the fringe position it held in the not so distant past to a position of prominence. We saw an extraordinary range of subjects and styles, from major series to student films, which both inspired us and made selection difficult."
