Green to win: Eco-friendly competitions

I hear the economy's not doing so well, but this downer doesn't seem to have hit the green market very hard, considering all the big green businesses and initiatives making the news. Yes, there's money to be made in environmentalism -- and here's a roundup to some of the contests that can put some of that green in your pocket:

  • Onegoodchair One Good Chair design competition. Make beauty meet comfort, and get $4,500 to transform that brill idea into a prototype. Downside: You gotta plunk down $50 in faith of your design by May 16. Final designs must be submitted by June 9. (via Inhabitat)
  • Go Organic! for Earth Day contest. Just send in photos and an explanation that illustrate why you badly need a grocery makeover. The grand prize winning family will get to go on a grocery store trip to fill up the kitchen with free organic groceries, and a day of cooking lessons with Chef Catelli in their kitchen.

Best of luck with your entries.
