Kennebunkport, Maine, USA (October 20, 2022) – GLP Films (GLP), an award-winning full-service content marketing agency, is ecstatic to share that Sierra Gorda Ecological Group has been chosen as the Grand Prize winner of the 2022 Sustainability Storytelling Competition (SSC). As such, the organization will receive a fully customized pro-bono video production and distribution package by GLP and partners, which will be 100% carbon neutral thanks to competition partner Sustainable Travel International.
Selected from the six Category Winners by a group of top-tier panelists from diverse industries, Sierra Gorda’s story rose to the top due to its global relevance in addressing the climate crisis and its effects on communities around the world.
“This competition was born out of GLP’s mission to promote sustainability through storytelling,” says GLP Founder and Chief Strategist Rob Holmes. “We wanted to help tell the stories of people around the world who are doing incredible work to help their communities and the planet. Sierra Gorda’s sustainability story fully encapsulates all that this competition is about: collaboration, hope, regeneration, positivity. We can’t wait to help tell their story and to bring it to a global stage.”
Founded in 1987 as a response from local citizens to the rapid environmental deterioration of the Sierra Gorda bioregion in Querétaro, Mexico, Sierra Gorda Ecological Group is a model of entrepreneurship and social participation that works to correlate economic development with biodiversity conservation. The group develops the skill set and the economic value for the landowners whose forests provide environmental services–scenic beauty as well as carbon and water capture.
