This year marks TIME’s third annual Earth Awards, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. In 2024, the planet breached 1.5°C of warming above pre-industrial temperatures, an ominous milestone—and a reminder of the urgency with which the world must tackle this challenge. And although climate action faces headwinds from the rising tide of populist politics around the world, this year’s group of honorees remain steadfast in championing sustainability and shaping a greener future.” To celebrate, TIME will host its third-annual **TIME Earth Awards** in New York City on April 23 following the 2025 TIME100 Summit earlier that day. The dinner will feature appearances from the honorees of the 2025 TIME Earth Awards, including **Michael R. Bloomberg**, **Rainn Wilson**, **Catherine Coleman Flowers**, **Jay Inslee**, **Selassie Atadika** and **Bill Frist**. The **2025** **TIME Earth Awards** is presented by official timepiece **Rolex** and founding partner **Galvanize Climate Solutions**. ### ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/7271893/time-reveals-the-2025-time-earth-awards/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/7271893/time-reveals-the-2025-time-earth-awards/"},"headline":"TIME Announces the 2025 TIME Earth Awards","datePublished":"2025-03-27T12:00:00.000Z","dateModified":"2026-03-11T00:17:53.690Z","description":"TIME reveals the 2025 TIME Earth Awards list, recognizing individuals influencing the future of the planet.","url":"https://time.com/7271893/time-reveals-the-2025-time-earth-awards/","keywords":["Press Room"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt3f1e5d8cfc849403/6998c53747fe5193a155b8bf/earth-awards-how-we-chose_b81734.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"TIME PR","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/time-pr/"}],"articleSection":"Press Room","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt3f1e5d8cfc849403/6998c53747fe5193a155b8bf/earth-awards-how-we-chose_b81734.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"earth-awards-how-we-chose_b81734","caption":"","creditText":"Photograph by Eric Ryan Anderson for TIME","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/press-room/","name":"Press Room"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/press-room/","name":"Press Room"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/7271893/time-reveals-the-2025-time-earth-awards/","name":"TIME Announces the 2025 TIME Earth Awards"}}]}] ```
