The PICNIC Green Challenge is a competiton organised by the Dutch Postcode Lottery and PICNIC. We are looking for ideas to break from traditional approaches to solving the environmental issue, and will reward the best idea for a Co2 reducing product or service with • 500.000. The winning idea will also receive professional coaching from business leaders and a starting list of customers. The deadline is 30th of August 2007.

Ideas and projects entered into the challenge should be executable (the required entry documentation is basically a business plan). Organizers are looking for products and services that are convenient, well designed and of overall high quality and can enable large numbers of people to effortlessly reduce their personal impact on global warming.
 
We would like to ask you for any help in spreading word of this Challenge, in order to reach as many innovative minds as possible. Attached to this mail you'll find our press release and some banners.
