  7. about EcoMedia – federal agency support Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) “Now one of the most exciting things about EcoZone and the partnership that we're embarking on here is that EcoZone relies on innovation, collaboration and the enthusiasm of corporate America to really help get the job done, maintaining America's economic competitiveness and also getting environmental results.” Benjamin Grumbles Asst. Administrator for Water, EPA U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) “The department really views public-private partnerships as a key element in the nation’s energy strategy. I’m very hopeful that [EcoZone] will help bring a number of players together to not only deal with things like clean air and clean water, but also help us advance our mission to get more efficient use of energy and alternative sources of energy for America’s future.” Richard Moorer, Deputy Asst. Secretary for Technology Development U.S. Department of Energy National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) “EcoZone creates the opportunity to foster collaborative partnerships between public and private entities that can make measurable improvements in the quality of our waterways and promote environmental stewardship of coastal resources.” Dr. Holly Bamford, Manager, Marine Debris Program, Office of Response and Restoration, National Ocean Service

  8. about EcoMedia – congressional support CALIFORNIA "The program improves our quality of life by reducing pollutants that otherwise go into the Santa Monica Bay and onto our beaches.” Jane Harman, D, California, U.S. House of Representatives OHIO “…a success in more than a dozen municipalities across the country and is quickly being embraced at the state level as agencies recognize the benefits of stretching limited financial resources through this effective private-public partnership.” David L. Hobson – R, Ohio, U.S. House of Representatives

  9. about EcoMedia – municipal support "As the Nation's Capital, it is fitting that the District of Columbia should implement the nation's first - and flagship - EcoZone program. In partnering with the federal government and the private sector for revenue and support, the city can now address some of the most urgent environmental challenges in our city - at no additional cost to District taxpayers.” Anthony A. Williams, Mayor of District of Columbia “Providing this kind of funding is something that is essential for us to help us clean our environment, because it’s not typically the kind of funding that would be available in a general budget of a municipality. So, these outside sources, because of the public-private relationship, allow us to convert those funds to great use in cleaning up our environment.” Manny Diaz, Mayor of Miami, Florida “One of Baltimore's highest priorities is to enhance the quality of life for all residents; it is essential that we clean up the local streams that run through our city and then to the Chesapeake Bay. Our partnership with EcoMedia is designed to help resolve this critical environmental issue by recruiting the private sector to raise funds and support our efforts to restore and preserve streams and the Bay." Martin O’Malley, Mayor of Baltimore, Maryland

  10. about EcoMedia – advocacy validation “EcoMedia’s EcoZone program is one of the best ideas I've encountered to combat the problem of urban runoff. It's the type of creative idea that's going to clean up our waters…Cities get much needed funds; communities get cleaner water; and corporations can put their resources to work for the betterment of society.“ Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., President and Founder Waterkeeper Alliance “What a great thing in this day and age, when you have private money, entrepreneurial money, market-based forces, coming together to work with government to actually make a difference in our nest, our habitat, and the human world in which we live.” Will Baker, President, Chesapeake Bay Foundation “Through a unique partnership between government, business, and individuals, the EcoZone program effectively addresses the most important environmental challenges facing communities today. I heartily support this innovative, market-based strategy that will leaf to improvements in energy use, air & water quality, green space, and ultimately quality of life.” Terry Tamminen, Special Assistant to the Governor and former Secretary, CalEPA
