Description

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) – as part of its People, Prosperity and the Planet (P3) Award Program – is seeking applications proposing to research, develop, design, and demonstrate solutions to real world challenges. The P3 competition highlights the use of scientific principles in creating innovative technology-based projects that achieve the mutual goals of improved quality of life, economic prosperity, and protection of the planet – people, prosperity, and the planet. The P3 Program promotes a shift towards more environmentally benign products, processes, and systems. It is essential that all involved in the design, discovery, and demonstration of technical innovations understand the fundamental techniques and principles that underlie the P3 approach.  The EPA offers the P3 competition in order to respond to the needs of people in the United States (U.S.)—e.g., those in small, rural, tribal, and disadvantaged communities. Please see the P3 Student Design Competition website (link below) for more details about this program. Proposed projects must embody the P3 approach, which is that they have the intention and capability to simultaneously improve the quality of people’s lives, provide economic benefits, and protect the environment. Applicants should address one of the following research areas in their proposals:

1.     Air Quality,    

2.     Safe and Sustainable Water Resources,

3.     Sustainable and Healthy Communities, or

4.     Chemical Safety.
