Gulf of Mexico Division (GMD) is a non-regulatory division of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) founded to facilitate collaborative actions to protect, maintain, and restore the health and productivity of the Gulf of Mexico consistent with the economic well-being of the Region. This funding opportunity advances protection and restoration of the Gulf of Mexico by investigating how environmental messages impact public behaviors or actions through demonstrated litter prevention and reduction assessments. Successful recipients will create and manage a state-wide high school art/slogan competition focused on reducing plastic/trash in freshwater and/or marine systems in one of the five Gulf states. The artwork and slogans will be used to educate the public on benefits of reducing trash in waterways.
