**For the fourth consecutive year, people and organisations around the world are
invited to send in their ideas for reducing CO2 emissions to the Postcode Lottery
Green Challenge. The best sustainable product or service will win €500,000. Two 
runners-up will each win €100,000.**

If your green product or service combats the production of greenhouse gases and 
scores high on design, user-friendliness and quality, you could win. Each entrant
to the [Postcode Lottery Green Challenge](http://www.greenchallenge.info/greenchallenge)
must submit a detailed business plan so that the Challenge’s expert jury can determine
whether the idea is viable.

In late September, the seven finalists will present their ideas to an international
expert jury and an audience of invited guests at the multiday cross-media conference
PICNIC’10. The winner will also be introduced to potential customers and business
partners.

Last year’s winner was from the UK: Dean Gregory runs The Power Collective, which
makes all-but-invisible windmills for use on peaked roofs.
