This year, we seek short stories, web novels, collages, paintings, audio or visual art forms, graphic novels, and children’s books that inspire and educate about sustainability. We believe in the power of storytelling to drive change and raise awareness about the critical environmental issues facing our world today.
“Have no fear of perfection, you’ll never reach it.”
