Earth Day Art Contest
Powering a Resilient Future: Nuclear Energy and Earth Day
About the Contest
Idaho National Laboratory’s K–12 STEM Education Program is launching a national art contest for students across the United States in celebration of Earth Day — observed each year on April 22 as a global initiative that encourages environmental awareness and action.
In recognition of this effort, INL is inviting students to explore how nuclear energy can support a resilient future through creativity and art.
"Powering a Resilient Future: Nuclear Energy and Earth Day"
Students may depict ideas such as:
- Future nuclear reactors
- How nuclear powers homes & communities
- Nuclear energy protecting the environment
- Clean energy for a sustainable world
