Sustainability at Harvard

CERtoon - Environmental Cartoon Competition

Enter the 9th Annual CERtoon Competition!

CERtoon (Campus Emissions Reduction toon) is the FAS Green Program’s competition to create cartoons that raise awareness about environmental issues in humorous and unexpected ways. Every year, we tap into the creativity of our undergraduates and staff to inspire the entire Harvard campus to live a little more sustainably.

The Top 15 CERtoons will all win gift certificates to local restaurants and shops, and will be exhibited in cafes and offices across campus. In addition, the first place CERtoon (voted on by your peers) will win cash prizes.

Got an idea, but can’t draw? No problem! Find someone who can and enter as a team!

Submit your CERtoon by Tuesday, February 21st. Click here to find out how.
