Some of you are already heading back to classes, and some are still enjoying the remaining weeks of summer.  In either case, it’s time to start donning our racing gear -- er, ok, it’s not actually a sporting event -- it’s time to start brainstorming and developing plans for clean energy and climate solutions projects for once the Great Power Race officially starts in September. 

To help with those preparations we are releasing two guides that will help get you started...

Click here for a resources page where you can download both guides and more.

The first is a guide that explains more details about how the Great Power Race works and offers a few tips for how to start preparing for projects.  The second is an organizer guide from 350.org that is a helpful tool for any kind of community organizing, particularly surrounding the 10/10/10 Global Work Party.  (Be sure to sign up your campus team for a work party event too! This is a great way to showcase what you are doing for the Great Power Race. www.350.org/1010).

You can access both guides and more here: www.greatpowerrace.org/resources

We’re just weeks away from the launch of the Race.  Time to get ready.

Thanks all,

Fei and the Great Power Race coordinating team

P.S. 3 campuses have now taken advantage of the chance to get a headstart and earn points before the race officially opens.  This opportunity will close once the Race begins on September 1st, so take advantage now: www.greatpowerrace.org/headstart
