An innovative contest for youth ages 13-18, living in the area covered by Limestone and Algonquin School Boards, is calling for stories or pictures imagining a place on Earth set in a more hopeful future, one without fossil fuels. How might the future look if people really worked together to reverse the direction of global warming? How might homes, schools and transportation be different? How did people get there? What problems would people still be working on?

This contest invites young people to play with ideas, and either write them into a story, or create art in any medium to share these ideas with others.  

Like all good contests, this one has prizes: two $500 and six $100 cash prizes, and a number of other excellent prizes donated by sponsors.

The deadline is very soon: Monday November 7!

Full details and some useful suggestions to help contestants get started are at: youthimaginethefuture.com.
