The European Commission on 14 June 2006 launched a school competition for young people to find a new name for the environmental monitoring system GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security). GMES was to gather relevant data, for example concerning environmental pollution, floods, forest fires or earthquakes in support of public policy makers’ needs. The Commission invited young Europeans to unleash their creativity and find a more accessible name for this important programme. |
