Due June 14th, 2010 - Scientific American is pleased to announce The World Changing Ideas Video contest, in partnership with SciVee. The contest is open to video entries about innovative ways to build a cleaner, healthier, safer world. The ideas represent a simple yet powerful vision of a better future. Some ideas may be in use now; others are emerging from the lab.

Videos will be judged on overall impact, scientific content, concept/originality, entertainment value, and production quality.
