Round Entry
Team Provisio.zip
We're Team Provisio from Michigan. As biological science majors, it seemed only fit to enter into the Imagine Cup competition again this year with the topic in our field of study. Last year, our Short Film team placed in the Top 20 (semi-finalists) with our perspective on foster care education. This year, with two of the former four competing again, we're excited to share with you our thoughts (and images) on technology and environmental sustainability.

About Our Entry
As veterans to the Imagine Cup competition, we understand the level of ingenuity necessary to produce a great presentation. You'll notice we took a futuristic approach because we believe that the ability to create and imagine something is what keeps innovation and technology alive. We're big dreamers, but we also know the course of technology and the future of science. Hence, our team name is derived from the Latin word for "foresight". The biggest thing we focused on for Viewer's Choice (US Challenge) was to put ourselves in the future of our planet and scientific/technological efforts to continue to sustain the environment. Sustainability is different from conservation. Conservation is a opportunity to ration or save current resources. Sustainability implies allocating and moving around resources to prolong the quality of the earth's life. We'd like to think that it's an active process, and therefore, we reflected that in our photo essay.

Our photo essay presents a collection of technology and a near-future perspective on environmental sustainability for tropical ecosystems in the year 2015:"Proceeding the recent 2015 Global Conservation Watch Convention in 'Alternative Energy Technologies Capital' Detroit, Michigan, the Institute for International Tropical Sustainability (IITS) released their update report on their Preservation of Tropical
Systems Initiative."

Thanks for your support and for your vote: Team Provisio for the US Viewer's Choice Award!
