“You can nominate yourself or others working in sustainability in any sector – from fashion to food, built environment to biodiversity.”
In 2017, finalists included micro-breweries, floating solar farms and sustainable food initiatives.
The awards will be judged by a panel of independent experts and presented at a gala awards night on 4 October 2018.
