> What Are NAFA's Sustainable Fleet Awards?
The Sustainable Fleet Awards honor individuals who have implemented pioneering, innovative, and creative programs to help with their company’s overall sustainable or “green” initiative. What are your sustainable fleet practices that provide for creating and maintaining environmental conditions for future generations? Let NAFA know! Originally called NAFA's "Green Fleet Awards," we have renamed this award to better reflect the importance and impact fleets have on our world today and in the future. Four awards will be offered; two for a sedan/light truck fleet and two for a truck/equipment fleet. For 2009 winners of the Green Fleet Awards, click here
