Wanna know what the competition is like? Here's one winner for 2010, from Ohio: Clay McMullen, a sophomore at West Geauga High School from Chesterland, Ohio, is receiving national recognition for his dedication to the preservation of Ohio’s wetlands. After learning about the destruction and significance of Ohio’s wetlands, McMullen, along with a group of friends, founded Wetlands Education Team (WET).
