![Entries for Green Heart Award close this week](https://biz-file.com/c/1204/99949.jpg)
The Award offers an attractive cash prize for both the winner and his or her nominator, among a host of other sponsored prizes.
The five finalists will attend a lunch function on Friday 22 June 2012, where the winner will be announced. The date was chosen because it coincides with three relevant and symbolic events: The UN 3-day Sustainability Summit in Brazil closes on 22 June, the EU Sustainable Energy Week runs from 18-22 June 2012 and it is Erin Brockovich's birthday, the famous American environmentalist born in 1960. Despite the lack of a formal law school education, or any legal education, she was instrumental in constructing a case against the Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) of California in 1993.
Criteria
The nominee must be employed by the organisation on a full-time or part time basis, have worked diligently and long in informing, or creating or providing tools and resources to assist colleagues in his/her department or organization. The nominee cannot be someone who works in a sustainability department or be the allocated green officer. The green heart applies to someone whose job description does not entail implementing green behaviours in the organization but who does it out of his or her own free will.
Vision
The vision of the award is to encourage the culture of eco-champions in workplaces everywhere. To encourage organisations to see that behavioural change for the better is not always driven top-down but from down-up and to encourage businesses to reward 'Green Hearts" and use them as role models.
