    The closing date for entries is 15 June and entrants can submit their products, services, innovations and achievements via email to moc.aideaporivne@gnikrowten.

    The finalists will be announced on 4 July 2014 following selection by a team of highly respected, environmentally-aware judges. All entries are assessed using seven criteria that are the 'roots' of Eco-Logic and three finalists are selected in each category.

    The 2014 Eco-Logic Award categories are:


    • The Water Conservation Award
    • The Energy Saving Award
    • The Transport Award
    • The Recycling Award
    • The Biodiversity Award
    • The Climate Change Award
    • The Municipalities Award
    • The Youth Award
    • The Eco-Angel Award
    • The Eco-Warrior Award
    • The Eco-Innovation Award
    • Eco-Community Award
    • The Lifetime achievement Award

    "Each year the quality of the entrants makes another leap in quality and diversity. It is motivating to see the increase in Eco-Logical thinking that is permeating South African businesses and consumer choices," says David Parry-Davies, editor of The Enviropaedia and co-host of the Eco-Logic Awards.

    "One of my current preoccupations is the identification, nurturing, mentoring and encouraging the conservation champions and leaders of the future," Dr John Hanks, winner of the 2013 Lifetime Achievement Award says. "The Eco-Logic Awards are the type of awards that call attention to some of the great work underway to promote the message that environmental conservation is not a luxury, but instead a vitally important prerequisite for building a sustainable future for South Africa."

    The Eco-Logic Awards will be presented to the winners at the Maropeng (Cradle of Humankind) World Heritage site near Johannesburg on 17 September 2014.
