How Do I Win?
This year’s theme:
Leap into the Future: Imagine it’s 2050 and Manitoba Led the Way on Climate Action!
Net-zero by 2050 isn’t just a target — it’s a global deadline. To avoid the worst impacts of climate change, the world must reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by the year 2050. That means slashing pollution and reimagining everything: energy, transportation, food, cities — and how we care for each other — starting now.
A panel of judges will select up to 10 finalists, and one winner will be chosen by People’s Choice — the video with the most views, likes, and shares online!
🎥 What we’re looking for:
✔️ Personal point of view — how climate change impacts YOU and fellow Manitobans
✔️ Smart, local solutions (*hint check out – our resource website below.)
✔️ Creativity and originality
✔️ Strong storytelling
✔️ Solid sound and picture quality
