I-GO wins 2009 Illinois Environmental Award |
The Illinois Environmental Council,
which provides a forum for statewide
environmentalists in Springfield and
promotes sound environmental laws and
policies, honored I-GO Car Sharing at
its 7th annual Environmental Leadership
Dinner, Sept. 24, at Hotel
InterContinental Chicago. I-GO was one
of three recipients of the Environmental
Leadership Award, along with 18th
District Illinois State Rep. Julie Hamos
and the Austin-Wide Parent Network's
joint initiative with the Healthy
Schools Campaign. The keynote speaker
was no slouch either: Jon Carson, chief
of staff for the White House Council on
Environmental Quality. I-GO got the nod
for being "a successful social
enterprise that is reducing the
individual and societal costs of
driving."
