Earth Day Eco-Footprint Challenge 2007 - Past Promotion

Earth Day 2007
Eco-Footprint Challenge
April 23 - 27

GRTMA members took the
Ecological-Footprint Quiz
during Earth Day week (April 23-27, 2007)
they emailed their results to grtma@grtma.org.

All of those employees* who took the challenge and emailed their results were placed in a drawing for five $50 gift cards to their choice of either Gray Barn Nursery or Whole Foods Market.

The Results:

We wanted to find out how Redmond measures up to Seattle.

Seattle has a 22.2 acre footprint per person, as compared to a nationwide 23.8. This means that it takes 23.8 acres to sustain each individual's current rate of consumption of energy and resources in the United States. The average worldwide is 4.4 acres.

The eco footprint for Redmond is 21. We did beat Seattle, but we still have a long way to go individually and collectively toward meeting our 'green' goals. Thanks to all of you who participated.
The winners of the $50 gift cards are:


	Ivan Silantyev	Eddie Bauer
	Peg Eagle	Lake Washington School District
	Balaraman Pradeep	Honeywell
	Kathy Sturgis	City of Redmond
	Jennifer Krebsbach	Medtronic ERS

*All entrants must be from GRTMA member companies or business parks. See if you qualify.
