Clarity are working in partnership with Eventure Media to promote the Rushlight Awards, to be held on 10 December 2007.
Click on the logo above to learn more about the awards, and to find out how to enter. The deadline for entries is 31 October 2007.
The Rushlight Awards are new. They are designed to celebrate the significant achievements of UK and Irish technology, innovation and commerce in helping to address the key issues of climate change and waste management.
Clarity will be featuring entrants and winners of the awards in our Environmental Thinking e:communication, at a discounted rate.
The awards will seek to set out the substantial advances that have been made, to promote and support organisations and their achievements so far, and to inform consumers, investors and industry of the progress that has been made, the choices that now exist and the future investment opportunities that lie ahead.
The Stern Review has made it very clear that there is much to be done. Put in the context of what has already been achieved makes the challenge much more palatable. These awards will recognise and seek to facilitate three of the strategies for decarbonising the power sector identified in the review:
+ boosting low carbon technology;
+ encouraging research and development;
+ informing, educating and persuading individuals about what is available and so what can be done to respond to climate change.
But these awards go beyond the climate change arena and cover waste management too, which is linked but is also an issue in its own right, in the context of dwindling landfill resources and pollution, with the associated health risks.
These awards stand out as the only UK and Ireland wide awards for technology, innovation and commerce that have advanced society’s capabilities to live in a sustainable way. The awards are wholly independent, both in the form of judging and also in the context of not being connected with any particular journal or publication. Every organization has a fair chance to win a coveted award which will be widely publicised. Indeed, all entries are invited to be included as a one-page promotion at no cost in a complete book of entries after the event.
Sponsors will have the opportunity to present their brand and business to the leading organisations in the environmental sector and the key players in the environmental debate.
This is a singular opportunity for entrants and sponsors alike to become part of a celebration of achievement and to demonstrate their true environmental credentials.
