PA, the UK's leading provider of multimedia content and services, will again partner with media charity tve to celebrate UK television programming which best engages the audience with the environment. The PA Award for Environmental Storytelling will be presented at the tve Global Sustainability Film Awards at The May Fair Hotel on 18 November 2019.

Competitive categories, for which companies worldwide are invited to enter films, include Companies taking Climate Action, Transforming Society, Sustainable Transactions, Sky: Beyond Plastic, Infrastructures for the Future, and AI and Digital Innovation.

The PA Award for Environmental Storytelling is a nominated prize which spotlights outstanding examples of UK television broadcasting about the environment across news, current affairs and factual genres. Previous winners include Sky News for its documentary A Plastic Whale,' about a Cuvier's beaked whale whose stomach was found to be clogged with plastic, and the BBC for the final episode of Blue Planet IIwhich featured Sir David Attenborough's call for humanity to take action against the damage done to the planet.

Television is a powerful medium for informing and educating the wider public about the challenges facing our planet. We look forward to celebrating once again compelling examples of environmental storytelling that have aired during the year,' says Tony Watson, managing director of PA.

A special early bird entry fee is available until 19 July. Enter your company's film into one of the competitive categories now!
