People & Planet Green Business Award (Green America)

People & Planet Green Business Award
Awarding $60K annually to 12 socially & environmentally responsible businesses

The People & Planet Award recognizes businesses for their dedication to a green economy: a bottom line that includes protecting workers, communities, and the environment. Seasonally, we award three $5,000 cash prizes in a range of green-business categories, such as zero-waste, clean energy, and local community action.

The Spring People & Planet Award season will begin on March 21, when we'll begin accepting nominations for businesses demonstrating a strong green commitment to a sustainable food system.
