What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

EarthxTV

EarthxTV will feature inclusive conversations, environmental storytelling and interactive experiences. A guiding force for collective change, EarthX is committed to bridging the divide on environmental issues and fostering constructive dialogue between unlikely parties through new media – challenging the mediums through which we congregate over the future of the planet and work together to correct the course of history in an increasingly virtual world.

Programming will include opinion, analysis and reporting specials along with creative storytelling that explores environmental topics around wildlife, people and culture, science and technology, justice and policy, and business. EarthxTV will also feature themed series that highlight focus points in the environmental conversation through multimedia and cross- ideological dialogue.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

EarthX strives to provide an arena to educate and engage the public regarding environmental problems and solutions and to champion those who are addressing local and global ecological issues. EarthX works with a large audience comprised of youth, adults and individuals from around the world to educate on the power of everyday change to create a last effect on the planet.

At EarthX, our platform is used to promote the research and work of environmental agencies around the world. EarthX engages in strategic partnerships to ensure that their work has a platform and that there is a way to promote their work and/or research. Through our partnerships, we encourage collaboration and the continuation of environmental study and research. We encourage this through the promotion of their research on EarthxTV, at our conferences and at our Earth Day Expo.

EarthX is a global platform and connector, our organization works with many foundations, companies and individuals nationally and internationally. EarthX promotes the work of scientist, politicians, inventors, activist and many more who are concerned about the current state of the environment. Through our work with these groups and individuals, EarthX is able to bolster current environmental work that is happening around the world and help educate and inspire the public in ways they are able to aid in the fight for the environment.

EarthX began simply as Earth Day Texas, a small outdoor event created to help support environmental initiatives, companies and foundations in Dallas, Texas. Since its creation, EarthX has expanded our original event to include over 600 exhibitors and 400 speakers at our Earth Day Expo. The 2020 Earth Day Expo brought our annual event to its largest audience ever through a virtual livestream reaching all corners of the globe. The world tuned in for this environmental event of a lifetime. Conservatives and Liberals. Democrats and Republicans. Activists with different viewpoints, all sharing a vision for a healthy and sustainable planet. And at the end of it all a new television platform was born, EarthxTV.

EarthX continues to grow its reach to have a large global impact through our extensive list of programs.
