The funding is available for student teams who want to build prototypes for the Alaska Airlines Environmental Innovation Challenge. The funds can be used to purchase materials, rent equipment, or hire short-term workers with skills beyond the team’s capacity.
These funds are available to students from all colleges and universities in the Pacific Northwest. Any product, process or service that reduces waste, minimizes energy consumption, and contributes to a healthier planet is eligible. Re-use, recycling, water usage, energy generation, green consumer products, and nanotechnology - all are ripe for innovation.
The prototype funding deadline is this weekend. Teams who wish to participate in the Environmental Innovation Challenge must register by Feb. 21. For more information, go to www.eic.washington.edu.
