Power Race

The Great Power Race is a clean energy competition between students in China, India and the United States. This competition is a current 350.org campaign, so if you missed today's "work party" you can still get involved.


I looked at the website and Western has a team set up. Western's score is currently zero with zero projects pending/completed, but there are many ways to contribute. The site has a list of projects with assigned points. The projects consist of small easy actions like putting up posters to save water and harder ones like implementing a water harvesting project. The race ends November 12, 2010 and there will be prizes awarded ( currently unknown) to the winners of the race.


This is another great way to get people involved in reducing climate change and improving the planet's overall environmental state. I wish I would have known about this sooner, but its not too late to contribute. Even though there is only a month left it would be nice to get Western's score above zero.
