Notable moments

The very first EMA Awards took place in 1991 at which Diane Sawyer was host and Robert Redford was the keynote speaker.[5]

The 27th annual EMA awards were held in 2017 and hosted by Jaden Smith at the Barker Hangar, Santa Monica Airport.[6][7]

The 29th annual EMA awards took place in 2019, hosted Karrueche Tran, with Isle of Dogs by Wes Anderson winning the award for best feature film.[8]

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 30th Environmental Media Association’s awards ceremony in 2020 was held "virtually" via a livestreamed event.[9]

2021 saw a return to a more traditional awards event, after the previous year's pandemic induced virtual one, and was hosted by Jeff Goldblum.[10][11] At that ceremony Ed Begley Jr. received a lifetime achievement award, in part as recognition of his environmental activism.[12]
