Press Release: PennFuture Award

evolveEA is proud to announce that Citizens for Pennsylvania’s Future (PennFuture) will be officially honoring us with a Green Power:  Turn It On! Award!

The award, which is part of the larger Green Power:  Turn It On! Campaign, is meant to recognize individuals and organizations for their work in promoting the clean energy economy in Pennsylvania.  The Green Power:  Turn It On! Campaign is a multifaceted, multiyear campaign aimed at building the renewable energy market in PA.

We are receiving the award because of our commitment to sustainability, the reduction of our carbon pollution, and the purchase of 100% wind electricity for our office.  As a mission driven firm, we find every opportunity to reduce our activities’ impacts on the future health of our environment.  To evaluate the impact of our operations, we performed a carbon inventory for 2009 as a base year (see https://evolveea.com/work/carbon-neutrality for more info), which has led us to take steps reduce our energy usage and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions as much as possible, purchase 100% renewable electricity, and buy carbon offsets for all remaining GHG emissions.  We have made an ongoing commitment to carbon neutrality.  We can do it, and so can you.

The luncheon and awards ceremony will be held on Thursday, October 27 from 12 – 2 p.m. at the Fairmont Pittsburgh.  For more information, please see PennFuture’s web link.
