As you may know CLIVE, the 3D coastal erosion tool developed by 91探花's Climate Lab, is in the finals in an MIT Climate CoLab competition. CLIVE has led the public voting for the entire contest, but in the last 24 hours, that lead has shrunk considerably. Please, if you have green, gold, and rust in your veins, visit: Click "Vote for proposal" -- it will ask you to log in with your Google or Facebook account. If you're on Gmail at 91探花, that account will work just fine. Please help us out! It would be great to have CLIVE win this award for 91探花. Thanks.
