Eureka Prize Tackles Climate Change
Saturday, February 2, 2008
High school students will seek home-grown solutions to climate change in the new Eureka Prize for Action Against Climate Change.
Sponsored by Macquarie University, students will measure their CO2 emissions at home or school and suggest ways to reduce it.
Results must be scientifically measured (it is a science prize after all!) and presented on-line.
How students present their online results is up to them - the more creative the better.
They could write a song, do a dance or rap. Produce an animation, short film or website. Star in a play, debate or discussion.
How the presentation is made is not the critical issue. What matters is how effectively the chosen Action Against Climate Change message is conveyed - and that the presentation is available for viewing online.
Winners of the Macquarie University Eureka Prize for Action Against Climate Change will share over $11,000 worth of cash and prizes.
Entries close 5pm 2 May 2008.
