The LowCVP Chairman Graham Smith has received a 'Lifetime Achievement Award' at the Green Fleet Awards 2006, an event held at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium on October 12th.

Graham Smith received the award for his contribution to environmental improvements during ten years as Managing Director of Toyota GB and as the first, and current, Chair of the Low Carbon Vehicle Partnership.

The Green Fleet Award citation highlights the 2006 CERES Report, a global study into climate change, which named Toyota as the highest placed motor company based on a scoring system giving organisations points for taking practical steps to mitigate climate change.

The citation also comments on the success of the colour-coded fuel economy label for new cars which has been brokered by the LowCVP under Graham Smith's chairmanship. Graham made a very important contribution in helping to bring motor industry colleagues on board with the scheme.

Graham Smith was recently promoted to the position of Senior Vice-President, External and Environmental Affairs for Toyota Motor Europe.
