NEW:  State Middle-School Winners Announced; Award Information Online.

In 2007, IMAGINING TOMORROW presented "Clean Energy" awards at each of the six Regional High-School and six Regional Middle-School Science Fairs.  We are happy to announce that the program is continuing in 2008 as the "Clean Technology Awards".

These awards will go to the best project related to any aspect of Clean Technology, including understanding the implications of our energy practices on our climate and weather.  Qualifying project would include clean energy technologies, higher-efficiency approach to other technologies that use energy, efficiency analyses, and projects related to understanding global climate, including system dynamics and non-linear behavior. 

The awards are given based on the relevance of the project itself, and the overall rating from the Massachusetts State Science and Technology Fair regional judging.

There will be an award at each high school regional fair of $100, a Certificate of Recognition, and a T-shirt.  At the middle-school fairs, there will be a Certificate of Recognition and a T-shirt.  There will be two $125 awards at the high-school state level, and two $75 awards at the middle-school state level.  Award winners will be invited to attend IMAGINING TOMORROW Awards Reception at Genzyme Center in Cambridge, Friday, May 16th. 

Commenting on the 2007 Clean Energy awards program, IMAGINING TOMORROW director Mary Essary stated that “There were an impressive range of topics, some focusing on specific questions, and some with a completely holistic view of a problem.  We are very proud of the curiosity, creativity, and scientific standards of these awards; it gives us a great sense of hope and optimism about our future.”
