We are very happy to announce that reTHINKING competitions has just launched the new contest #017 Global Warming Center.

The latter cities may experience 100 or more freeze/thaw cycles a year, creating unique challenges for public space use, outdoor event planning, roadway maintenance, and infrastructure design.
