Attention High School Students and Teachers!

Have you heard about planet-connect.org?

PLANET CONNECT is an online social network where high school students can learn about current environmental issues, opportunities, green colleges and careers. Also students can share and exchange ideas about how they are playing a critical role in solving today’s environmental issues.

Do you have an innovative solution to protect the environment? Would you like to make a difference now? Planet Connect is looking for your creative ideas to fix an environmental problem at your school or in your community and is offering grant winners $1,000 awards with $500 to support your idea and $500 for an environmental internship in your community.

The official Planet Connect website will be launched with the announcement of the Planet Connect grant winners in February 2009. But for now, until the grant winners are announced and the social network website is launched, it is time to start thinking about your own grant ideas and projects. The application deadline is January 20, 2009.

To download the application information or to find out how the program works and submit your ideas, please visit www.planet-connect.org.
