Meet our Honorees

Lasting environmental protection is earned through a synergy of local activism and institutional leadership, which is why the Environmental Council annually bestows a trio of awards. One honors distinguished vision and service by public or private sector leaders. One recognizes the grassroots leadership from within our member organizations. And one gives a scholarship to young leaders working to protect people from dangerous chemicals.
