Design a set of stamps as a means of encouraging consumers to make positive environmental changes and educate future generations with regard to energy conservation, low-impact transport, zero-carbon housing, and reducing water over-consumption.
The digital templates of the various stamp sizes provided are to assist you in your design work. They are shown at 400 percent but the actual sizes of the stamps are 27mm x 37mm portrait, 35mm x 35mm, 37mm x 35mm landscape, 30mm x 41mm landscape.
As described in the Submission Details for this project, one of your presentation sheets should show your set of stamps at actual size, and a second presentation board should show them at four times larger than actual size.
The templates include a blank outline, an outline with the Queen's head and first class value, and an outline showing the two alternative positions that the Queen's head can take, together with the alternative positions that the first class value can take.

Every environmental problem has causes, numerous effects, and most importantly, a solution" - http://library.thinkquest.org/26026/Environmental_Problems/environmental_problems.html
