The Green Apple Awards are renowned worldwide for their acknowledgment of organisations that lead the way in eco-conscious practices. The accolade serves to spotlight initiatives that significantly reduce carbon footprint, paving the way for a more sustainable and greener future.
The Green Apple Environment Awards were established in 1994 with the aim of annually acknowledging, honouring, and advocating for the best environmental practices worldwide.
According to The Green Organisation, these awards cover improving environmental performance, promoting the efficient use of resources, enhancing the competitiveness of organisations, supporting the broader goals of sustainable development—including fostering social benefits through community and staff involvement—and aiding winners in reaping the rewards of their environmental endeavours.
