PRC's Anti-Litter Response Video Contest

PRC's Crying Steelers Fan Anti-Litter Response Video Contest

Description

From visual blight on your way to work, to cutting your pooch's paws while you're out on a walk, to clogging our rivers and streams, there is no limit to how litter negatively impacts communities. Pennsylvania Resource Council and our partners at KDKA-TV/Pittsburgh's CW are inviting professional and amateur filmmakers, as well as citizens of the Pittsburgh area to show us how litter impacts your life and your city.

There are two categories to submit your "anti-litter" video – a winner will be chosen from each category in the summer of 2015 and will be aired on KDKA's Pittsburgh Today Live.

Choose the category that fits best for you and be sure to email infowest@prc.org with any questions!
