    Sheryl CanterA cap on greenhouse gases could solve our addiction to oil, but it’s hard to explain this succinctly. Can you convey this concept in a vivid and memorable way through a video or still image? If so, you could win a $10,000 professional fee. We’re also offering cash prizes for the second and third place entries.

    Details on what we’re looking for and the rules of the competition are on our Web site.

      A thought : put up a message board for the contestants to use to discuss the competition. They don’t have to share ideas, but they might, and you might get more and better responses as a result. Also, I don’t know how to make a video or put up a website, but I’ll happily share any ideas I have free of charge to those that want to use them in their submissions.

      I passed along this idea, but those running the competition are doubtful. Thanks for the thought, though!
