Declan

This is Max Borders at aBetterEarth.org, a project of the Institute for 
Humane Studies. I may have sent you information about some of our 
environmental programs in the past, since I think your blog, like our 
website, is open to innovative approaches to environmental challenges, 
including utilizing market solutions and property rights.

I think your audience might be interested in our latest art/film 
contest. We are conducting an “EnviroAds” contest to encourage 
innovative thinking about the environmental challenges we face. We are 
looking for clever, outside the box thinking about some very old problems.

Here’s a description of the contest you could pass along:

$6,000 Enviro-Ads Film/Art Contest
A total of $6,000 in awards will be given to the creators of the best 
EnviroAds, as determined both by visitors to aBetterEarth.org website 
and by our distinguished panel of judges. Create and submit an ad that's 
funny, satirical, creative, inspiring, ironic, sexy or dramatic. Win the 
top prize of $3,000, or one of the runners-up prizes of between $250 and 
$1,000.

We're looking for original material that causes people to think about 
environmental issues in different ways. The goal is not persuasion per 
se, but to start a conversation. Make us think. Make us cry. Make us 
laugh out loud. For contest details, go 
herehttp://www.abetterearth.org/enviroads.

Deadline for submission is September 30, 2004. Winners will be announced 
in October.

If you have any questions, please contact Max Borders at 
info () abetterearth org

Thank you very much, and good luck with your writing.

Sincerely,
Max Borders
