The stuff you use every day affects your environment, your community, and your planet. EPA is sponsoring a video competition to raise awareness of the connection between the environment and the "stuff" people use, consume, recycle, and throw away. We need your help in creating videos that will inspire community involvement, spread information and lead to action. Your passion, your creativity, and your ideas can make a difference. After all, it's our stuff, our planet, our choice.

How to Enter

Review the contest rules and eligibility requirements before you begin so your video meets the criteria.

Make a 30 or 60 second video that reflects the theme of the competition—individual action in your community—by showing what you're doing to manage your "stuff." Focus your topic on one or more of the following areas:

• Reducing/reusing
• Recycling
• Composting
• Consumption and environmental footprint
  
• Videos can be funny or serious, as long as they focus on the contest themes.
• Make sure your video ends by displaying EPA's Web address – www.epa.gov/recycle – for at least three seconds.
• Fill out the submission form. Remember to set your entry as a video response  to our promo video.

Submit your video response on or before February 16, 2010 to our promotional video on EPA’s YouTube contest site.
