The Commonwealth Bank and Conservation Volunteers Australia have come together to recognise, reward and support young Australians who are actively involved in improving their local environment. Now in its fourth year, the Commonwealth Bank Green Ambassadors program is searching for young people between 16 and 30 years of age who can demonstrate leadership in one of the following five categories:
- At Home… living green and doing what it takes to reduce their household’s environmental impact
- At Work… taking action, influencing and empowering others to reduce the ‘footprint’ of the workplace and its employees
- At School, TAFE, College or University… positively influencing other students, teachers and the administration
- On the Road… using ‘smart travel’ practices to minimise negative effects on the environment
- In the Community… actively participating in or leading practical conservation activities in local neighbourhoods
