Hi all, James Randerson from the Guardian asked me to promote a competition. He wrote:
"The Guardian, BBC and Manchester festival are planning an event to scrutinise climate mitigation strategies and evaluate their potential. It will be a mock judicial review chaired by Lord Bingham and the report will be forwarded negotiators at Copenhagen. The idea is to draw attention to climate change solutions and to show-case interesting and innovative ideas." http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/blog/2009/may/01/climate-change Got a brilliant idea for a behavioural change or technological/scientific breakthrough that could tackle global warming? The Guardian and the Manchester International Festival have this week launched the Manchester Report, a competition searching for innovative ways of mitigating climate change. To submit your idea, download the application form. A total of 12 finalists will be shortlisted to pitch their idea to a panel of expert judges at Manchester Town Hall in July. The best ideas will form the basis of the Manchester Report, which will be distributed to policy-makers involved in the crucial UN climate treaty in Copenhagen this December. The deadline for applications is 29 May. ---- Cheers, John --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "geoengineering" group.
