.LIMCollege students presented concepts for sustainable cotton-based and climate-positive businesses.
New York-based LIM College announced the winners of its Cotton Climate Challenge Competition, and the commemorative event, as one might guess, was held entirely online. The competition was held during LIM College’s first “Virtual Sustainability Expo” on April 27 and 28.
The student award for first place, with a reward of $1,000, went to “The Three Farm,” a vertical indoor farm that allows for year-round cotton farming and reduces weather risks, by Alexa Geller, Maheen Nisar and Skylar Roa.
