About Us
The Environmental Hall of Fame is devoted to curtailing climate change and restoring the Earth’s ecosystem by promoting green and eco-conscious living. The Environmental Hall of Fame recognizes environmentalists (corporations, companies, individuals, and organizations) who are committed to taking a stand for a green sustainable planet. The selection committee nominates outstanding candidates for recognition and inducts the winners into this prestigious organization.

The Environmental Hall of Fame will select approximately 50 top environmentalists representing different environmental areas. These nominees, selected from a field of several hundred entries, all share a common commitment to providing the most effective solutions to help humanity’s survival and to restore balance to planet Earth. Our mission is to give the award recipients a more powerful platform to help them implement their vision to reduce global warming.

The recognition garnered in receiving a place in the Environmental Hall of Fame is intended to be equivalent to receiving an Academy, Emmy, or Grammy Award in the entertainment industry.

The individuals or organizations chosen as nominees have already made some of the greatest contributions to the environment. There will be awards in 12 major fields that encompass approximately 50 categories, including: Awareness, Community, Energy Efficiency, Government, International, Media, Natural Capitalism, Solar Energy, Environmental Stewardship, Sustainability, Transportation and Wind Energy.

The 50 categories span the depth and breadth of environmental concerns. This year we will induct approximately 50 individuals, organizations or businesses into the Hall of Fame, generally one for each category. Often in the first year of hall of fame inductions, a larger number of individuals are inducted. There also may be more than one individual or organization per category. (Especially since there are at least 50 years we have to catch up on!) This may change next year. By comparison, the Grammy Awards and Emmy Awards have over 100 categories each year.

A book and DVD are scheduled to be published under the name Environmental Hall of Fame. Once the inductees are chosen, we will include a profile of them, their contributions and recommendations in the book and DVD, Environmental Hall of Fame, 2008 Edition. This book and DVD will be released to TV, Internet and other media for broadcast and distribution. The book and DVD will also be available to the public through the Environmental Hall of Fame website.

Through the power of working together, the Environmental Hall of Fame inductees will be able to enjoy an unprecedented opportunity to help humanity avoid disaster and leave a more sustainable legacy for our children and grandchildren.
