For the contest on Adaptation to Climate Change
MIT's Climate CoLab: Your ideas can help combat climate change
At MIT’s Climate CoLab you can work with people from all over the world to develop ideas for what we can do about climate change, right now.
If you submit one of the winning ideas, you’ll be able to present it before government officials, business executives, NGO leaders and scientists who can help move proposals toward implementation, as well as share it at an MIT conference, where a $10,000 Grand Prize will be awarded.
Even if you don’t have new ideas yourself, you can help improve other people’s ideas and support the ones you find most promising.
Current contests address adaptation, low-carbon energy, building efficiency, geoengineering, shifting public attitudes and behaviors, and over a dozen other topics. Students and researchers interested in collective adaptation responses are especially invited to the contest on Adaptation to Climate Change: http://www.climatecolab.org/web/guest/plans/-/plans/contestId/1300208. Entries are due July 20, 2014.
