Motivate by passion for the outdoors, Light & Motion was presented the Green Business award and the WRAP award by the Monterey City Council on April 18, 2006. The awards recognize Light & Motion for outstanding efforts in conservation and preservation of our environment and our planet. CEO Barrett Heywood received the award from Monterey Mayor Dan Albert

The Green Business Award is a multimedia (soil, water, and air) pollution prevention effort that creates a positive relationship between government, the public, and the business community. The Green Business Program recognizes those businesses leading the way in the environmental field within the County of Santa Cruz and Monterey.

To be certified “green," Light & Motion was found to be in compliance with regulatory agencies and meet program criteria for conserving resources, preventing pollution and minimizing waste. Light & Motion has made the choice to operate in a more environmentally responsible way.

Light & Motion was also recognized for receiving the WRAP award from the Waste Reduction Award Program. WRAP provides an opportunity for California businesses to gain public recognition for their outstanding efforts to reduce waste. The Waste Board's Waste Reduction Awards Program (WRAP) is designed to recognize companies that develop creative and aggressive programs to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills.

Light & Motion is committed to the preservation of the environment that we all rely on. The company recognizes that it takes continual effort, learning and constant awareness to leave the least negative impact on this earth as possible. The staff at Light & Motion encourage other businesses to do the same.
