ABOUTTHISCONTEST

Last time Siemens had a contest on Zooppa, they asked how you would change your city for the better.

Now, in the grand tradition of sequels that go bigger, we ʼre asking how you would change the world!

What can we do right now -- all of us as a collective force on our planet or you alone in your personal

environment -- to create a green, promising future that not only allows for economic prosperity, but also

sustainable development for mankind and our environment? What can we do right now to provide affordable

and accessible healthcare everywhere, create jobs, save our planet's flora and fauna, and clean up our

cities, where already today more people are living than ever before?

In Rio de Janeiro this June, the Rio+20 United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development will be held

to address these issues. Siemens wants to see your earth, your dream, your action.

YOURMISSION

Create up to 4-minute video showing us your global initiatives we can start right now to make the world a

greener place. These ideas must be grand in scope, but can be portrayed on a very personal level. The goal

is to show how youʼd help human kind, and including a human in your video telling your story through a very

personal point of view is highly encouraged.
