We're amazed by the accomplishments of the Grand Prize and Second Place Winners in our annual Project Polar Bear Contest, which challenges teens to reduce CO2 in their home communities. We honored the 2009 winners at an Awards Ceremony in San Diego, CA, on April 23. Together the winning teams reduced carbon emissions by nearly 100 million pounds!
