Top Things You Must Read, Watch and Do to Save the World

THIS VISION BROUGHT TO YOU BY DIRECTV®

Science fiction has the incredible power to bring the future to life in all of our imaginations. The genre has helped to inspire us to dream, warned us about potential missteps, and has served as a catalyst for the development of real solutions to today's problems.

Now in partnership with DIRECTV®, SCI FI's VISIONS FOR TOMORROW will challenge you to learn from science fiction and positively impact the future.

Below we have created a list of some of the greatest works of science fiction. Here's your opportunity to choose the best in science fiction film, television, and literature, while identifying the courses of action that you believe can make a difference.

So make some tough choices, add something you feel is missing from the list, and cast your vote by Monday, March 31, 2008. Then check this page in April to see the final composite Top 10 list in each category, as named by you, our fans, plus the official Top 10 lists as chosen by
The SCI FI CHANNEL.

When making your selections, you may keep three factors in mind...

Adrenaline (the title's power to enthrall and excite)
Vision (how well it presents a scenario for the future)
Precision (whether the science behind the fiction holds up)

SCI FI Launches Online Poll

The SCI FI Channel-backed Visions For Tomorrow campaign has partnered with DirecTV to launch a new online poll, "Top Things To Read, Watch, See, and Do To Save The World," the network announced.

The poll provides the opportunity for individuals to get involved, spark a discussion and ultimately vote for the most powerful works of science-fiction television, film and literature, while identifying the courses of action that can make a difference.

To participate in the poll, fans can visit www.scifi.com/visions from now until Monday, March 31, 2008 and vote for the films, televisions programs, works of literature and the most important things they believe individuals can do to save the world. SCI FI will tally the votes and announce the fan-created list in April. At the same time, SCI FI will release its official top-10 lists of film, television and literature created by a blue-ribbon panel of jurors from SCI FI and the Visions For Tomorrow advisory board. Fans will then be able to compare and contrast the lists side-by-side to enhance the dialogue.
