Be the Change by Sharing the Story

Earth 911 is partnering with Quantum Shift TV, an innovative solution-oriented web broadcaster, to deliver actionable and educational content to the next wave of environmental stewards: students.

Earth 911 is an Action Partner for Quantum Shift’s “Be the Change! Share the Story!” youth video contest, where students from across the U.S. and Canada can upload videos documenting the planning and implementation of social and environmental projects. The first prize for the contest is $50,000.

As part of this partnership, Earth911.com has uploaded over 50 videos to Quantum Shift’s Web site that serve as eco-friendly examples for contest participants. Quantum Shift has provided a player so that visitors to Earth 911 can also view these videos, including Earth 911’s EnviroTip series.

Earth 911 will also feature videos from the “Be the Change! Share the Story!” contest on its Web site as part of the new Earth 911 student section that will launch in January. The site will direct students back to the Quantum Shift Web site in order to enter the contest, which has a deadline for the first video of January 31, 2008.

For more rules and regulations on the “Be the Change! Share the Story!” contest, visit the contest Rules & Guidelines page.
