Earth Day Award Nominees Sought

The City of Moscow is seeking nominations for the Mayor's 2014 Earth Day Awards. The awards recognize Moscow residents for activities conducive to environmental sustainability. Categories include individuals, businesses, students/schools, non-profits/service organizations/government, building/development, green visionaries (long-range environmental objectives), and green neighbors (from nearby communities). Worthy candidates who don't fit into those categories will also be considered.

The concept, first set forth in 2006, is "to acknowledge and encourage sustainable practices that foster environmental sustainability through conservation, recycling, reuse, construction/design, and public education." Earth Day has been celebrated on April 22 each year since its inception in 1970.

Nominations should include the names of the nominator and nominee, contact information for both, and a brief description of why the nominee is worthy of recognition. Nominations are due by April 9, 2014 and ma be submitted by letter or email to the City of Moscow, Admin Dept (Attn: Sustainable Environment Commission), PO Box 9203, Moscow, ID 83843 or electronically to the Sustainable Environment Comuission at sec@ci.moscow.id.us. The Sustainable Environment Commission will forward recommendations to Mayor Bill Lambert, who will determine the award winners.
