---------------
new environmental award recognizing outstanding and innovative leaders was inaugurated Tuesday when seven Champions of the Earth were named by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). No monetary reward is attached to the prize, which is intended to publicize and encourage the worldwide replication of the achievements of the Champions of the Earth.

UNEP Executive Director Klaus Toepfer said the seven awardees have "set the environmental agenda and laid the foundations for the many areas of progress we are able to see and celebrate today."

Candidates were judged by a panel of senior UNEP staff members, with input from UNEP’s regional offices. Selections were made on criteria of creativity, vision and leadership, and the potential of their work and ideas for replication.

The awards - one from each region of the world plus one special award - will be presented on April 19 at the United Nations Headquarters in New York to:

<b>・The King and people of Bhutan
・Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al-Nahyan of the United Arab Emirates (posthumously)
・President Thabo Mbeki and the people of South Africa
・His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew
・Julia Carabias Lillo, former Environment Minister of Mexico
・Sheila Watt-Cloutier of Canada, President of the Inuit Circumpolar Conference
・Zhou Qiang and the All-China Youth Federation
