2020 Utah High School Clean Air Poster Contest
Arts/Entertainment
The Utah High School Clean Air Poster Contest was created in 2015 by USU professors Roslynn Brain McCann of USU Extension Sustainability and Edwin Stafford of the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business. Posters designed by teens combine art, science, and savvy marketing to encourage Utahns to help keep the air healthy by carpooling, using alternative transportation, limited idling, and trip-chaining (completing multiple errands at a time to limit unnecessary driving). Posters are often provocative, funny, edgy, and tied to teen pop culture. Winning posters are then displayed for education outreach across the state. Winning posters will be announced at 10:30 a.m.
