Has something inspired you in your walk of life to create an invention that could benefit the world? If you are a green inventor who wants to be featured on a new national television series, the Science Channel wants you and your green inventions!

Send us a brief description of you, your savvy invention, what inspired it and why you feel it is deserving of national attention. Please include your location, and it would also be VERY helpful if you had a prototype of your idea. Photos of you and your invention would be helpful but aren’t necessary.

I’ve got nothing for them, but I thought I would share it with my readers. My inventions generally are stop gap measures that get replaced with something store bought after they make their shortcomings known.
