More recognition for people power

The Green Awards is a scheme to recognise companies and brands that are successful in communicating green messages.  This year they have also introduced a new ‘people-powered’ category.  They are accepting applications for ‘Campaigner of the Year’, to recognise creative and committed individuals who get their message across using their own contacts, funding they raise or donate, and good old ingenuity - which we know exists in abundance in our Big Green Challengers!  The deadline for entries has been extended until 17th September.  You do have to pay £23.50 to enter though - I wonder, as an individual or not-for-profit campaigner, does this put you off applying?
