Carbon Manna Unlimited announces "The Micro Sustainability Prizes©" for Innovations in
Markets-based, Self-regenerating Micro-economic and Micro-ecological Paradigms for "The
Next Billion" in the Developing World
(PRWEB) January 18, 2010 -- Carbon Manna Unlimited in San Diego, California, a non-profit think-tank and
international "micro" standards-setting organization, announced today the Carbon Manna(SM) "Micro
Sustainability Prizes©", the world's first awards designed to recognize innovation and creativity in the field of
markets-based, self-sustaining, micro-economic or micro-ecological paradigms implementable in the Developing
World.
The Micro Sustainability Prizes© will be awarded annually to the most novel open-source ideas in
markets-based, sustainable "micro" paradigms, also known as "The Micro Revolutions©". If you have developed
or even just conceptualized a self-funding, universally-applicable micro paradigm or wealth-creation system for
the Base of the Pyramid (BOP) or "The Next Billion", we encourage you to apply today for this awards program.
"Richard Feynman, the late American physicist, said, 'There's plenty of room at the bottom!', and nowhere is this
truer than in the areas of sustainable micro-entrepreneurism, micro-environmentalism and micro-economic
initiatives for the Developing World that embrace naturally regenerative mechanisms or self-renewing funding
sources, such as Bono's Product (Red)™ campaign," remarked David Palella, Founder of Carbon Manna
Unlimited.
And because good ideas come from anywhere, these cash awards are open to all comers worldwide including
school children, entrepreneurs, homemakers, refugee camp residents, corporations, professors, sanitation workers,
government employees, the homeless and Nobel Prize winners. In particular, student teams from any country are
strongly encouraged to apply.
