Green Island Awards - Green by name and nature!

The team from Green Island Resort in conjunction with Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service were ecstatic with four outstanding awards achieved in the 2009 Keep Australia Beautiful Clean Beach Challenge.

Green Island was awarded three regional categories and one State-wide award, recognising the island’s pristine beaches and commitment to caring for this World Heritage environment.

Lisa Krause, General Manager of Green Island Resort said, "We work closely with National Parks to ensure our waste management, recycling and environmental management is a top priority. These awards are a wonderful accolade for all involved in contributing to our future sustainability.”

The Clean Beach Challenge awards are the culmination of a year-round collaborative effort by the staff of Green Island Resort, Great Adventures and the Quicksilver Group, and QPWS.

• “Resource Recovery” - Queensland
