Got a brilliant idea for a behavioural change or technological/scientific breakthrough that could tackle global warming? The Guardian and the Manchester International Festival have this week launched the Manchester Report, a competition searching for innovative ways of mitigating climate change.
To submit your idea, download the application form. A total of 12 finalists will be shortlisted to pitch their idea to a panel of expert judges at Manchester Town Hall in July.
The best ideas will form the basis of the Manchester Report, which will be distributed to policy-makers involved in the crucial UN climate treaty in Copenhagen this December.
The deadline for applications is 29 May.
