The next "Earth Champion" could be you.

Earth Champions Foundation, an international environmental group, launched the Hong Kong Earth Champions Quest on 1 August 2008 at The Foreign Correspondents’ Club, Central, Hong Kong.  This quest is a search for everyday heroes  and organizations who are striving to improve their community and city environment.

Hong Kong residents and organizations are invited to nominate individual, community, business and government initiatives.  Nomination categories include water, air, energy, biodiversity, built environment, waste reduction and transport.

Nominations will be accepted from Friday 1 August until Thursday 2 October 2008. Following an assessment process all nominees will be honored and outstanding projects awarded, at a celebration to be held on Thursday 6 November 2008.

“Anyone can be an Earth Champion - rich or poor, old or young” said Fiona Matthews the Foundation’s Chief Executive Officer and Founder.  “We’ve had champions as old as 93 and the youngest was 8”
