Share Your Green Urban Story
SustainLane, known for its ranking of greenest US cities, is looking for short essays on sustainable urban living. Here are a few ideas from the contest guidelines:
- Tell us the story about the commuter
rail that doesn’t exist (voted down yet again). Would it run near your
neighborhood, if it did? - Tell us about the successes. Does
the city leadership have the right idea? Are there projects run by
nonprofit organizations or businesses worth mentioning? - Tell us about the champions of sustainability in your city. Who’s already doing it the right way?
Essays should be 500 words. Accepted entries will be rewarded with $100 and publication on a new urban sustainability web site.
Further details and the entry form are here.
