Create a piece about a coastal/marine species, place, or system in 2019 that will be threatened, altered, or lost due to climate change.

  • Prose
  • Film
  • Music

How to Enter

Step 1: Review & Research
Step 2: Create

CHOOSE A CATEGORY

Please review all submission requirements carefully. Students may submit one entry per category, meaning that you may enter up to five pieces, one in each category. If you submit more than one entry in a category (for example, two poems), those additional entries will not be counted or judged.

WRITE YOUR REFLECTION

A written reflection is required to accompany your submission, regardless of category. The reflection helps judges understand more about you, your work, and the issue you are addressing. It is like the introduction to a book or an artist’s statement in a museum. The judges will not lower your score for a poorly written reflection, but writing a thoughtful and personal reflection will certainly help the judges understand you and your work better, and you will likely do better in the Contest!

Reflection Requirements:

  • Length: 100-250 words
  • Your reflection should be written in English.
