50 Prizable climate ideas

This Earth Day, we collaborated with Luminary Labs to highlight 50 ideas for using open innovation to address one of the world’s greatest challenges: climate change.

Inspired by the once-in-a-generation opportunity to advance rapid and transformative solutions—and make a real impact on the future—we’ve curated a list of 50 climate prize ideas. These microproposals only scratch the surface; but they’re intended to inspire fresh thinking about how open innovation could be used to invite a wide range of people and ideas to climate and environmental problem-solving. These ideas could be championed or sponsored by federal agencies, grantmaking institutions, and other types of funders.
