Due April 8th, 2010 - The EPA is sponsoring an environmental justice video contest that challenges amateur and professional filmmakers to create videos that capture the faces of the environmental justice movement. The Faces of the Grassroots contest is an opportunity to publicly exhibit creativity, environmental justice stories, and connect with others working to raise awareness of the movement. Learn more about Environmental Justice.

Faces of the Grassroots contest is an opportunity to:
    * tell your environmental justice stories,
    * publicly exhibit your creativity, and
    * connect with others working to raise awareness about environmental justice.

Videos can focus on any environmental justice activity, issue, or topic. For example:
    * submit a music video about climate change and how it will affect your community,
    * send us a video describing what environmental justice means to you, or
    * highlight a project that made your community a healthier and happier place to live.
