BusinessGreen.com nominated for Environmental Journalism Award

Businessgreen.com has this week been shortlisted for the prestigious Judges' Prize at this year's annual Press Gazette Environmental Journalism Awards.

In its second year, the awards aim to recognise the growing importance of environmental journalism and reward the best journalism on environmental issues in the UK.

BusinessGreen.com has made the shortlist for the Judges' Prize, which is awarded
to "the news organisation, website, publication or broadcaster which is judged to have excelled in the field of environmental journalism".

The site faces competition from Damian Carrington at the Guardian and Peter Charlton of the Yorkshire Post, who complete the shortlist.

The awards are to be judged by an independent panel of environmental experts and journalists, including Paul Charman, the head of journalism at the London College of Communications, Anita Syvret of Syvret Media, Justin Rowlatt from the BBC, and Chris Shearlock from the Co-Operative Group.

BusinessGreen.com is the only website to be shortlisted for an award with the shortlists for Environmental Story and Journalist of the year dominated by the Financial Times, the Sunday Times and the Guardian.

The winners will be announced at an awards lunch on November 25.
