This year we are going viral. We are coordinating a recycling video competition for participating colleges and universities. To increase student engagement for the recycling competition, we are asking students to create a short video showing their "love" for recycling on Valentine's Day 2011.
 
The students will upload their video to the RecycleMania YouTube page in response to a short video we've created to explain the competition.  Using a panel of judges, we will then pick the top 10 videos and place them on our RecycleMania Facebook page. Then for two weeks in March, the public will be in control and they will pick their favorite video by clicking the "like" button associated with the video they want to win.  
 
The grand prize will be $500 in cash to be used by the college/university's recycling program to promote the 2012 RecycleMania competition on campus. All members of the winning group (up to 25) will receive a prize pack from RecycleMania as well.
   
 
View our 1 minute introduction video and read the competition rules on our Facebook site - http://www.facebook.com/RecycleMania. Then click the "Notes" tab at the top next to "Wall", "Info", etc.
