$75,000 Prize Offered for Carbon-Busting Innovations

Have you got a great idea to tackle climate change? Forum for the Future has just launched a global hunt for the best innovations to create a low-carbon economy with a $75,000 prize to help bring the best idea to market. In an effort to overcome the barriers that can prevent great ideas delivering their full potential (like lack of funding and visibility to potential investors), FTF has teamed up with the Financial Times and Hewlett Packard to create this Climate Change Challenge. Targeting small organizations and individuals, Forum for the Future is looking for ideas that are below the radar and can be taken to scale quickly. The ideas can be anything from technical advances in reducing emissions to social innovations helping people become more resilient to climate change. The winner will receive a $75,000 prize, sponsored by HP, to develop their idea.
