Gunns Limited in the Running for an Environmental Award
The Banksia Environmental Foundation is a national non-profit organisation that promotes environmental excellence, and sustainability, by holding the annual Banksia Awards – Australia’s best known and most prestigious environmental award program. This year, alongside seven other finalists, Gunns Limited is in the running for an environmental award in Category 2 – Business Environmental Responsibility & Leadership. This is awarded to a business or government business enterprise that has demonstrated leadership, commitment and excellence in protecting Australia’s environment and contributing to a sustainable future. Cinnamon Nippard asked Vica Bayley, Styx Forest Campaigner with the Wilderness Society in Tasmania, how Gunns Limited has ended up on the shortlist for Australia’s most prestigious Environment Award. The Wire also contacted the Banksia Environmental Foundation, but they were unavailable for comment.
