Submitting a nomination into the Environment 100 couldn't be easier - here's how you can join the environmental elite in just a few simple steps:

Identify the person you wish to nominate.
Begin gathering the information, statistics and material you need to compile a winning entry! Wow the judges with a well-written, engaging, interesting entry that knocks their socks off!

Write your 300-word entry and gather a photo of the person you are nominating and any supporting evidence.
Your entry should outline the work the nominee has undertaken, the specific requirements of the project, the strategy and methods used, and the end result in terms of environmental benefits to the business, clients, customers, partners, stakeholders, or the sector.

Press submit! Once the deadline has passed our expert panel of judges will assess all of the entries and whittle it down to just the top 100.
And don't forget - it's completely FREE TO ENTER and ATTEND
Also make sure you pen 17th September in your diary for the recognition ceremony at ESS Expo 2026.
Nominees should currently be involved in an organisation that conducts environmentally-focused operations within the UK.
Self-nominations are welcomed and encouraged.
If you are nominating on behalf of someone else, please ensure you notify the person you are nominating, that you have chosen them and provide accurate contact information for them.
An individual may be featured in The Environment 100 only once within any three-year span. For instance, if they were listed in 2024, they would next be eligible for inclusion in 2027.
Your nomination submission should be supported by concrete evidence justifying your choice. For instance, if an individual has contributed to an increase in company revenue, specify the amount; if they have a strong commitment to apprenticeships and training, provide specific examples!

You can enter by submitting a 300 word entry and photo via the nomination form. Entry is completely FREE and nominations close on 27th June, 2026.
