David Ertz of Yarmouth is the winner of an eco-Excellence Award from Ecomaine for his work in sustainability as part of Yarmouth’s Committee for Energy Efficiency and Sustainability.
The Yarmouth committee was formed in 2018 to facilitate and carry out renewable energy and sustainability programs as well as to collaborate with other towns and make recommendations to the Town Council.
Ecomaine, single-sort recycling and sustainable waste management company, selects the winners based on the effectiveness, increased awareness, community impact and ease of replication of their sustainability programs or initiatives.
The eco-Excellence Awards presentation will take place in person March 21.

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
