For immediate release

Toronto, ON - EECO 2005, the only conference in the Great Lakes Economic 
Region designed to enable cross-border economic and environmental dialogue, 
will bring together the major players of the Great Lakes Economy May 26-27, 
2005 at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, in Toronto, Canada.

EECO 2005 is a biennial "platform" where business leaders, elected 
officials, public policy makers and NGOs meet to examine priority business 
and environment risks/opportunities. A unique forum, EECO is designed to 
promote dialogue, share ideas and innovation, build new relationships, 
profile best practices, debate cross-border environmental and clean energy 
policy, and support trade throughout the Great Lakes states and provinces.

This area is the economic generator of North America. Comprised of Ontario, 
Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana, New York, Illinois, Pennsylvania and 
Minnesota, The Great Lakes Economic Region produces a whopping 12% of the 
world's annual GDP and over $150 billion in cross-border trade annually.

EECO's dynamic and strategically-focused program, environmental-solution 
oriented exhibition and highly interactive forums deliver outstanding value 
to delegates, sponsors and partners.


The conference will also feature the EECO 2005 Exposition, providing 
progressive corporations with a unique opportunity to demonstrate their 
achievements in creating successful synergies between economic growth and 
environmental improvement.

The final day of the conference will be highlighted by the 4th Annual GLOBE 
Awards for Environmental Excellence, sponsored by the GLOBE Foundation and 
The Globe and Mail, to be presented at the EECO Gala Luncheon, May 27, 2005. 
These prestigious awards are presented to the extraordinary Canadian 
companies and industry groups who have demonstrated leadership in 
sustainable business strategies within Canada and around the world.
