**O2 is offering funding of up to £10,000 to 17-24 year olds that come up with a
project that uses digital technology to solve an environmental issue.**

 

The [Environment Now](http://www.o2thinkbig.co.uk/the-environment-now) programme
is funded by O2 and the [Big Lottery Fund](https://www.biglotteryfund.org.uk/), 
and is managed by the [National Youth Agency](http://www.nya.org.uk/). Projects 
must have a positive and measurable environmental impact in areas such as energy
efficiency or waste and recycling, be based in the UK although they may have a wider
impact, and not be part of an existing project or charity requiring additional funding
to continuing its existing work with no new elements.
