GLOBE Students from around the world are now invited to submit a short video (2 minutes or less) showing how they are exploring and investigating their local climate using GLOBE protocols and learning activities. Video entries will be accepted from 15 February to 15 March 2012. The top regional videos will be highlighted on the GLOBE website starting 16 April, and all videos will be featured on Earth Day, 22 April.
