MIT Climate CoLab Seeks High Impact Proposals on Addressing Climate & Energy Issues

 

Dear Colleagues,

 

MIT Climate CoLab (www.climatecolab.org), an online crowdsourcing platform of nearly 90,000 members worldwide, seeks high-impact proposals on addressing climate change. Seven new contests are now open on the platform (https://climatecolab.org/contests), on a variety of climate-related sub-topics such as energy supplies, buildings, transportation, carbon pricing, & more. Entries are due September 10, 2017.

 

Winners will be invited to MIT, join the Climate CoLab winners’ alumni, and be eligible for the $10,000 Grand Prize—to be selected from among top proposals across contests. All award Winners and Finalists will receive wide recognition and platform visibility from Climate CoLab.

 

We welcome you to spread the word about this opportunity widely with your networks. Sample content is included below for your convenience.

 

Best,
Climate CoLab
