Sustainability has been defined as meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

The award winners will be selected based upon quantifiable results that positively affect the environment." • Market Transformation Award - manufacturers, retailers, or marketers that promote products, services and choices that lessen the impact on the environment and health.
