“The Eco-Logic value system is a radically new approach to addressing today’s environmental challenges. It identifies the destructive thinking patterns and values that have led to today’s environmental critical conditions, and promotes an alternative set of constructive values and thinking patterns (the seven virtues of Eco-Logic) that support and benefit people, planet and a green economy,” Parry-Davies says.

A panel of experienced and knowledgeable judges from senior positions in the private and public sectors will use the “virtues of eco-logic” to assess each entry based on the following:

  • Reflects long-term, sustainable thinking;
  • Embraces a broadly inclusive and systemic thinking;
  • Demonstrates an Ubuntu care and consideration for others;
