Remedee is co-hosting with local facilitators 2-Cent a screening in New Orleans of films from this summer's "Change We Can Create" Summer Camp. This is our second annual event at the amazing New Orleans Center for Creative Arts. If you're in town, come on by and support these amazing youth!

WHAT: A contest. (The winner gets a $100 Best Buy gift card.)

WHEN: Now. (Videos must be completed and uploaded by January 25, 2009).

Using your Flip cameras, make a video that addresses the following purposefully vague question: What do you want people to know about New Orleans?

Feel free to tackle the good, the bad, and/or the ugly. Be as creative as you possibly can. Tell us what you want us (and everybody else) to know.

In the spirit of Remedee's vision to inspire global change through a local lens, this week we brought Reel Earth: New Orleans participant Crayola to CivWorld's Global Interdependence Youth Summit in Brussels, Belgium.

Remedee is breaking ground with today's launch of Reel Earth in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Reel Earth:

Reel Earth is a global program to enable young people to collectively create a series of documentary films that explore the link between global environmental degradation and their own personal realities. The tone is urgent yet hopeful, inspiring participants to rise to action, as well as generate awareness among their peers, consumers and policymakers.
