Think Globally Act Locally | The Power Of R

 
 
I just got back from the Comox Valley Chamber of Commerce 2009 Annual Community Awards, where I was thrilled to present the Environmental Initiative Award, which is sponsored by – who better? – The Comox Valley Regional District, to Jack Minard.
The award criteria states that “this acknowledges a business, organization or person who supports the need to be environmentally conscious and has demonstrated this in the development or implementation of an environmentally sensitive program”.
Jack shared finalist honours with Our Big Earth Media Company and Blue Toque Sports Swap.
Other deserving nominees in this category were: Silent Mountain Bicycle Courier, Courtenay Legion No. 17, Union Bay Credit Union, Sierra Club Comox Valley, and Courtenay & District Fish & Game.  Congratulations for being recognized by your community for your positive roles in environmental leadership.
As he accepted the Environmental Initiative Award, Jack said something like – I’m paraphrasing here –thank you not only for the award, but to the Comox Valley business community for recognizing the importance of the environment in all aspects of our lives.
