Report of the Awards Committee (4/29/17)
Two thousand seven hundred a twenty dollars were awarded in 2016 to support student travel to the World Summit on Environmental Accounting, and no awards have been administered so far in 2017. We are proposing allocating $5,000 to support travel to the January 2018 Emergy Synthesis 10 conference to be held at the University of Florida in Gainesville. These funds will be awarded in 2017. We will put out a call for student travel award applications in September 2017. Additionally, we propose allocating $500 for student poster awards to be given out at the 2018 Emergy Synthesis 10 meeting.
