hepparton-based Slap Tomorrow is eager to engage
students from the district’s secondary schools in creating their Big Idea.
The group has drawn up an outline for the Big Idea 2016 and
this week will talk with two school principals and the executive officer of the
Shepparton Lighthouse Project, Lisa McKenzie, about the idea.
Efforts to counter climate change need hitherto unseen
innovation and already it has been seen that the youth of the world appear best
equipped to generate these urgently needed fresh ideas.
Evidence of that was seen in the 2015 Discovery Education 3M
Young Scientist Challenge when a teenager from Boca Raton, Florida, won top
honours and received a $25,000 cheque for her creation, an ocean energy
harvesting device for the developing world.
