Mercury Marine has paved the way for other large organizations to get involved with conservation. Mercury's long-standing relationship with CCA has been immeasurable, so when it came to presenting this first-ever award, Mercury was the obvious recipient."

With his partner Joe Barbera, William Hanna won seven Academy Awards, and eight Emmys (including the prestigious Governors Award). They've won Golden Globes, Annies, several environmental awards (for various series episodes), received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and been the recipients of numerous other accolades on their way to being inducted into the Television Academy of Arts and Sciences Hall of Fame in 1993.
