Congratulations to EnCana, one of the funders of Project Porchlight Alberta, for their international awards that they received last week at Globe 2008!

EnCana won the The Corporate Award for Environmental Excellence. Here's a brief quote about the awards, from the Globe 2008 web site:

The GLOBE Awards for Environmental Excellence are presented annually to extraordinary companies and industry groups who have managed to balance competitive business strategies and sustainable development. Now in their 7th year, these prestigious awards recognize outstanding achievement in environmental stewardship in Canada. Whether through expansion, acquisition, or a change in strategic focus, corporations are seeking ways to meet global environmental challenges while maintaining and enhancing shareholder value. This award will be presented to a Canadian corporation with a proven record of environmental stewardship that has materially contributed to economic competitiveness through a commitment to environmental excellence that is integrated with a corporate-wide approach to sustainability.
