Back by popular demand, the World of 7 Billion student video contest can help you bring technology and creativity into your high school science and environmental education classes.

The contest challenges your students to create a short (60 seconds or less) video illustrating the connection between world population growth and one of three global challenges dealing with either the sixth mass extinction, available farmland, or global education. Students can win up to $1,000 and their teachers will receive free curriculum resources. The contest deadline is February 19, 2015.
