    The Environmental Defense Action Fund just launched the Climate Activist’s Choice Award. Watch the videos and vote now, and help pick the winner of $1,000.

    Last fall, we launched a competition for the video or graphic that best shows how a carbon cap will cure our addiction to oil.  We narrowed the entries to five finalists, and now we’re asking you to vote. The video with the most votes will receive our Climate Activist’s Choice Award.

    After you vote, please pass the word on to your friends and family — for every 100 votes cast, we’ll buy 100 pounds of carbon pollution reductions from IdleAire, Inc. IdleAire helps truck drivers connect to the power grid so they don’t idle their engines.

    Then come back here and let us know which videos you liked and why. Watch and vote now!
