If you love this planet… and you want to make a video
Many prominent celebrities have already added their own videos to the site. Curious to see what Moby, Estelle, James Blunt, Panic at the Disco, have to say? Check out their videos and statements of support at http://www.connect2earth.org/celebrities.
Launched in early 2008 by WWF and IUCN (the International Union for Conservation of Nature), and powered by Nokia, Connect 2 Earth allows users to post their views and creations, and also rank their favourite posting. Each month, the maker of the most popular posting will win a prize, such as a new Nokia phone. A panel of prominent conservationists, including Sir David Attenborough, will select the overall best video, picture or message. The winning postings creator will then have the chance to participate in the IUCN World Conservation Congress in Barcelona this October, to present their ideas to political, environmental and business leaders from around the world.
Barcelona is a city famous for the many dreamers and artists whove left their mark on the landscape, including Gaudi, Dali, Picasso, Llorca. Picture yourself making your mark too, by visiting Barcelona to bring your green vision for the future to the IUCN Congress this fall. Barcelona is far away, but Connect 2 Earth can help you share your dreams and its only a click away.
